Researchers have introduced the Geometry-Anchored Transport Framework, a novel approach to exemplar-free class-incremental learning (EFCIL). This framework integrates feature transport as an intrinsic training constraint, rather than a separate post-task step, to maintain stable decision boundaries in shifting feature spaces. It utilizes an Analytic Geometric Anchor derived via Mahalanobis-aligned regression to address anisotropic drift and a Topology-Aware Evolution objective to regularize manifold degradation. Experiments on CIFAR-100, TinyImageNet, and ImageNet-100 show that this coupled approach improves performance over existing post-hoc methods under strict exemplar-free conditions. AI
