Code Division Modulation Layers Against Forgetting and Inference in Continual Gait Identification

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.19122v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Continual learning (CL) has been recently employed in biometric identification systems thanks to its ability to integrate new knowledge within a pre-trained model and to the possibility of reducing the computational cost of training. Unfortunately, such approaches pose new challenges both in terms of final accuracy and privacy guarantees since a progressive fine-tuning of the model on small subsets expose them to catastrophic forgetting and successful inference attacks. This paper evaluates the efficiency of code division modulation layers (CDML) on a gait identification system which has been trained following a continual learning policy. The proposed approach preserves accuracy on all the tasks while mitigating membership inference attacks
