Dark Experience Replay (DER/DER++)

Extends experience replay by storing not just raw input-output pairs but also the model's logits (dark knowledge) at the time of storage. By matching both hard labels and soft logits during replay, DER++ achieves superior knowledge retention and consistently outperforms vanilla experience replay.

Related Strategies

Experience Replay

2017

Stores a subset of past training samples in a memory buffer and replays them alongside new task data during training. This interleaving of old and new examples helps the model retain previously learned representations while adapting to new tasks, effectively combating catastrophic forgetting through data rehearsal.

Generative Replay (DGR)

2017

Uses a generative model (e.g., GAN or VAE) to synthesize pseudo-samples from previous tasks instead of storing raw data. The generator learns the distribution of past tasks, enabling unlimited replay without requiring a memory buffer, making it particularly suitable for privacy-sensitive applications.

Gradient Episodic Memory (GEM)

2017

Stores a small episodic memory of past examples and uses them to constrain gradient updates during training on new tasks. GEM projects the gradient onto a feasible region that does not increase the loss on previous tasks, providing formal guarantees against forgetting.
