Abstract

To survive in the dynamically-evolving world, we accumulate knowledge and improve our skills based on experience. In the process, gaining new knowledge does not disrupt our vigilance to external stimuli. In other words, our learning process is ‘accumulative’ and ‘online’ without interruption. However, despite the recent success, artificial neural networks (ANNs) must be trained offline and suffer catastrophic interference between old and new learning, indicating that ANNs’ conventional learning algorithms may not be suitable for building intelligent agents comparable to our brain. In this study, we propose a novel neural network architecture (DynMat) consisting of dual learning systems inspired by the complementary learning system (CLS) theory suggesting that the brain relies on short- and long-term learning systems to learn continuously. Our empirical evaluations show that (1) DynMat can learn a new class without catastrophic interference and (2) it does not strictly require offline training.
