ReplayConsolidationwithLabelPropagationforContinualObjectDetection

2024-09-10
Object Detection is a highly relevant computer vision problem with many applications such as robotics and autonomous driving. Continual Learning~(CL) considers a setting where a model incrementally learns new information while retaining previously acquired knowledge. This is particularly challenging since Deep Learning models tend to catastrophically forget old knowledge while training on new data. In particular, Continual Learning for Object Detection~(CLOD) poses additional difficulties compared to CL for Classification. In CLOD, images from previous tasks may contain unknown classes that could reappear labeled in future tasks. These missing annotations cause task interference issues for replay-based approaches. As a result, most works in the literature have focused on distillation-based approaches. However, these approaches are effective only when there is a strong overlap of classes across tasks. To address the issues of current methodologies, we propose a novel technique to solve CLOD called Replay Consolidation with Label Propagation for Object Detection (RCLPOD). Based on the replay method, our solution avoids task interference issues by enhancing the buffer memory samples. Our method is evaluated against existing techniques in CLOD literature, demonstrating its superior performance on established benchmarks like VOC and COCO.
