Abstract
which reveals a critical stability-plasticity dilemma. Existing strategies struggle to address this dilemma: representation freezing in few-shot incremental learning can mitigate overfitting under data scarcity but leads to insufficient representation plasticity, while architecture expansion in hybrid incremental learning provides plasticity for adaptation but results in overfitting under few-shot conditions. To address this, we propose the Conditional Meta-Expanding This CVPR paper is the Open Access version, provided by the Computer Vision Foundation.
Except for this watermark, it is identical to the accepted version; the final published version of the proceedings is available on IEEE Xplore.
