avalanche.training.plugins.LwFPlugin

class avalanche.training.plugins.LwFPlugin(alpha=1, temperature=2)[source]

Learning without Forgetting plugin.

LwF uses distillation to regularize the current loss with soft targets taken from a previous version of the model. When used with multi-headed models, all heads are distilled.

__init__(alpha=1, temperature=2)[source]
Parameters
  • alpha – distillation hyperparameter. It can be either a float number or a list containing alpha for each experience.

  • temperature – softmax temperature for distillation

Methods

__init__([alpha, temperature])

param alpha

distillation hyperparameter. It can be either a float
