Lifelong Learning Machines (L2M)
Abstract
The Lifelong Learning Machines (L2M) program researched and developed fundamentally new machine learning mechanisms, enabling machines that learn continuously as they operate. L2M pursued learning approaches inspired by biological systems, which continuously learn and improve their skills without losing previous knowledge. L2M explored network structures that improved performance by processing new data seen in the field, learned new tasks without forgetting previous tasks, and incorporated context into their understanding of the environment. These capabilities will impact a broad array of military applications that require processing and understanding data in real-time, often have limited data sets for training, and must be deployed in environments where unpredictable events may occur.
