چکیده

We present a category learning vector quantization (cLVQ) approach for incremental and life-long learning of multiple visual categories where we focus on approaching the stability-plasticity dilemma. To achieve the life-long learning ability an incremental learning vector quantization approach is combined with a category-specific feature selection method in a novel way to allow several metrical “views” on the representation space for the same cLVQ nodes.

A life-long learning vector quantization approach for interactive learning of multiple categories

We present a new method capable of learning multiple categories in an interactive and life-long learning fashion to approach the "stability-plasticity dilemma". The problem of incremental learning of multiple categories is still largely unsolved. This is especially true for the domain of cognitive robotics, requiring real-time and interactive learning. To achieve the life-long learning ability ...

Interactive and life-long learning for identification and categorization tasks

The presented thesis focuses on life-long and interactive learning for identification and categorization tasks. The fundamental and still largely unsolved problem of life-long learning with artificial neural networks is the so-called “stability-plasticity dilemma”. To achieve plasticity the learning approach must be able to continuously integrate newly acquired knowledge into its internal repre...

Ordinal regression based on learning vector quantization

Recently, ordinal regression, which predicts categories of ordinal scale, has received considerable attention. In this paper, we propose a new approach to solve ordinal regression problems within the learning vector quantization framework. It extends the previous approach termed ordinal generalized matrix learning vector quantization with a more suitable and natural cost function, leading to mo...

An Integrated System for Incremental Learning of Multiple Visual Categories

An amazing capability of the human visual system is the ability to learn an enormous repertoire of visual categories. This large amount of categories is acquired incrementally during our life and requires at least partially the direct interaction with a tutor. Inspired by child-like learning we propose an architecture for learning several visual categories in an incremental and interactive fash...

High speed rough classification for handwritten characters using hierarchical learning vector quantization

Today , high accuracy of character recognition is attainable using Neural Network for problems with relatively small number of categories. But for large categories, like Chinese characters, it is difficult to reach the neural network convergence because of the “local minima problem” and a large number of calculation. Studies are being done t o solve the problem by splitting the neural network i...
