New framework adapts multimodal models for audio-visual class-incremental learning

Researchers have developed a new framework to adapt frozen multimodal foundational models (MFMs) for class-incremental learning (CIL) in audio-visual contexts. The proposed method utilizes an attention-based contextual guidance module, where audio representations guide visual representations to improve class recognition in incremental settings. To combat catastrophic forgetting, the framework incorporates feature- and logit-level distillation, demonstrating superior performance over existing state-of-the-art methods in extensive evaluations.
