Toward industrial use of continual learning : new metrics proposal for class incremental learning
In this paper, we investigate continual learning performance metrics used in class incremental learning strategies for continual learning (CL) using some high performing methods. We investigate especially mean task accuracy. First, we show that it lacks of expressiveness through some simple experiments to capture performance. We show that monitoring average tasks performance is over optimistic and can lead to misleading conclusions for future real life industrial uses. Then, we propose first a simple metric, Minimal Incremental Class Accuracy (MICA) which gives a fair and more useful evaluation of different continual learning methods. Moreover, in order to provide a simple way to easily compare different methods performance in continual learning, we derive another single scalar metric that take into account the learning performance variation as well as our newly introduced metric.

Towards Realistic Evaluation of Industrial Continual Learning Scenarios with an Emphasis on Energy Consumption and Computational Footprint
Incremental Learning (IL) aims to develop Machine Learning (ML) models that can learn from continuous streams of data and mitigate catastrophic forgetting. We analyse the current state-of-the-art Class-IL implementat…
