3. Problem setting

Illustration of the proposed IIL setting is shown in Fig. 1. As can be seen, data is generated continually and unpredictably in the data stream. Generally in real application, people incline to collect enough data first and train a strong model M0 for deployment. No matter how strong the model is, it inevitably will encounter out-of-distribution data and fail on it. These failed cases and other low-score new observations will be annotated to train the model from time to time. Retraining the model with all cumulate data every time leads to higher and higher cost in time and resource. Therefore, the new IIL aims to enhance the existing model with only the new data each time.

(b) ideal DB by jointly training on the old data and new data. (c) fine-tuning the model on the new data with one-hot labels suffers to CF. (d) learning with distillation on prototype exemplars causes overfitting to these exemplars and DB collapsing. (e) the DB achieved using our decision boundary-aware distillation (DBD).
