Title: Dynamic Historical Adaptation for Continual Image-Text Modeling. Abstract: In realistic application scenarios, existing methods for image-text modeling have limitations in dealing with data stream: training on all data needs too much computation/storage resources, and even the full access to previous data is invalid. In this work, we thus propose a new continual image-text modeling (CITM) setting that requires a model to be trained sequentially on a number of diverse image-text datasets. Although recent continual learning methods can be directly applied to the CITM setting, most of them only consider reusing part of previous data or aligning the output distributions of previous and new models, which is a partial or indirect way to acquire the old knowledge. In contrast, we propose a novel dynamic historical adaptation (DHA) method which can holistically and directly review the old knowledge from a historical model. Concretely, the historical model transfers its total parameters to the main/current model to utilize the holistic old knowledge. In turn, the main model dynamically transfers its parameters to the historical model at every five training steps to ensure that the knowledge gap between them is not too large. Extensive experiments show that our DHA outperforms other representative/latest continual learning methods under the CITM setting.
