Drift-adaptive Representation Preservation for Domain-Incremental Learning

Pretrained vision models provide strong general-purpose representations, but in Domain-Incremental Learning (DIL), where the input distribution changes sequentially, adapting to new domains often degrades performance on previously learned ones. We observe that forgetting is not uniform across domains and classes and is not explained by training order alone. This motivates us to track each past domain-class concept individually. We use representation drift, defined as the deviation of a past concept's current representation from a fixed anchor, as a measurable surrogate for forgetting risk. The measured drift then serves two complementary roles. A consolidation loss assigns stronger preservation to high-drift pairs, while prototype construction down-weights highly drifted domains to reduce their influence on the class reference. Preservation is thus allocated by measured drift rather than assumed importance. To obtain this signal during training without storing past raw data, we repurpose a Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (JEPA). For each domain-class pair, we store only a compact context summary in the backbone feature space and rerun it through the learned context-to-target relation to measure its drift from the fixed anchor. Across DomainNet, Office-Home, CORe50, and CDDB-Hard, our method sustains a strong accuracy-forgetting balance on every benchmark, using substantially less training memory than accuracy-competitive methods and the smallest storage among compared methods.

UniPrompt-CL: Efficient Single-Inference Continual Learning for Medical Image Classification

Medical AI systems must remain reliable as data distributions shift across hospitals, imaging devices, and patient populations, yet privacy constraints often prevent storing or revisiting past patient data. We present UniPrompt-CL, a rehearsal-free domain-incremental learning framework for medical image classification using a single backbone and a single inference. Rather than relying on multiple backbones, repeated ViT inferences, or independent layer-wise prompt pools, UniPrompt-CL shares a unified prompt pool across transformer layers and expands it with only a few prompts per new domain. This reduces cross-layer redundancy while enabling efficient adaptation. On diabetic retinopathy, UniPrompt-CL improves average accuracy by 2.0 percentage points and substantially reduces forgetting relative to the strongest backbone-matched baseline. On skin cancer, it achieves competitive accuracy at the lowest training cost among DINOv2-B configurations. A controlled comparison varying only pool organization shows that the benefit arises from retention rather than learning each new domain: it is largest on the medical benchmarks, smaller on OfficeHome, and reverses on a heterogeneous six-stage DomainNet stream. These results suggest that cross-layer prompt sharing with lightweight expansion is practical for medical models requiring repeated retraining under limited on-site compute, while identifying the domain shifts under which it helps.

Residual SODAP: Residual Self-Organizing Domain-Adaptive Prompting with Structural Knowledge Preservation for Continual Learning

Continual learning (CL) suffers from catastrophic forgetting, which is exacerbated in domain-incremental learning (DIL) where task identifiers are unavailable and storing past data is infeasible. While prompt-based CL (PCL) adapts representations with a frozen backbone, we observe that prompt-only improvements are often insufficient due to suboptimal prompt selection and classifier-level instability under domain shifts. We propose Residual SODAP, which jointly performs prompt-based representation adaptation and classifier-level knowledge preservation. Our framework combines $α$-entmax sparse prompt selection with residual aggregation, data-free distillation with pseudo-feature replay, prompt-usage--based drift detection, and uncertainty-aware multi-loss balancing. Across three DIL benchmarks without task IDs or extra data storage, Residual SODAP achieves state-of-the-art AvgACC/AvgF of 0.850/0.047 (DR), 0.760/0.031 (Skin Cancer), and 0.995/0.003 (CORe50).

Uncertainty Measurement of Deep Learning System based on the Convex Hull of Training Sets

Deep Learning (DL) has made remarkable achievements in computer vision and adopted in safety critical domains such as medical imaging or autonomous drive. Thus, it is necessary to understand the uncertainty of the model to effectively reduce accidents and losses due to misjudgment of the Deep Neural Networks (DNN). This can start by efficiently selecting data that could potentially malfunction to the model. Traditionally, data collection and labeling have been done manually, but recently test data selection methods have emerged that focus on capturing samples that are not relevant to what the model had been learned. They're selected based on the activation pattern of neurons in DNN, entropy minimization based on softmax output of the DL. However, these methods cannot quantitatively analyze the extent to which unseen samples are extrapolated from the training data. Therefore, we propose To-hull Uncertainty and Closure Ratio, which measures an uncertainty of trained model based on the convex hull of training data. It can observe the positional relation between the convex hull of the learned data and an unseen sample and infer how extrapolate the sample is from the convex hull. To evaluate the proposed method, we conduct empirical studies on popular datasets and DNN models, compared to state-of-the art test selection metrics. As a result of the experiment, the proposed To-hull Uncertainty is effective in finding samples with unusual patterns (e.g. adversarial attack) compared to the existing test selection metric.

Multi-Site Infant Brain Segmentation Algorithms: The iSeg-2019 Challenge

To better understand early brain growth patterns in health and disorder, it is critical to accurately segment infant brain magnetic resonance (MR) images into white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Deep learning-based methods have achieved state-of-the-art performance; however, one of major limitations is that the learning-based methods may suffer from the multi-site issue, that is, the models trained on a dataset from one site may not be applicable to the datasets acquired from other sites with different imaging protocols/scanners. To promote methodological development in the community, iSeg-2019 challenge (http://iseg2019.web.unc.edu) provides a set of 6-month infant subjects from multiple sites with different protocols/scanners for the participating methods. Training/validation subjects are from UNC (MAP) and testing subjects are from UNC/UMN (BCP), Stanford University, and Emory University. By the time of writing, there are 30 automatic segmentation methods participating in iSeg-2019. We review the 8 top-ranked teams by detailing their pipelines/implementations, presenting experimental results and evaluating performance in terms of the whole brain, regions of interest, and gyral landmark curves. We also discuss their limitations and possible future directions for the multi-site issue. We hope that the multi-site dataset in iSeg-2019 and this review article will attract more researchers on the multi-site issue.

3D Densely Convolutional Networks for Volumetric Segmentation

In the isointense stage, the accurate volumetric image segmentation is a challenging task due to the low contrast between tissues. In this paper, we propose a novel very deep network architecture based on a densely convolutional network for volumetric brain segmentation. The proposed network architecture provides a dense connection between layers that aims to improve the information flow in the network. By concatenating features map of fine and coarse dense blocks, it allows capturing multi-scale contextual information. Experimental results demonstrate significant advantages of the proposed method over existing methods, in terms of both segmentation accuracy and parameter efficiency in MICCAI grand challenge on 6-month infant brain MRI segmentation.
