Method and device for on-device continual learning of neural network which analyzes input data by optimized sampling of training images, and method and device for testing the neural network for smartphones, drones, vessels, or military purpose

摘要

A method for on-device continual learning of a neural network which analyzes input data is provided for smartphones, drones, vessels, or a military purpose. The method includes steps of: a learning device, (a) uniform-sampling new data to have a first volume, instructing a boosting network to convert a k-dimension random vector into a k-dimension modified vector, instructing an original data generator network to repeat outputting synthetic previous data of a second volume corresponding to the k-dimension modified vector and previous data having been used for learning, and generating a batch for a current-learning; and (b) instructing the neural network to generate output information corresponding to the batch. The method can be used for preventing catastrophic forgetting and an invasion of privacy, and for optimizing resources such as storage and sampling processes for training images. Further the method can be performed through a learning for Generative adversarial networks (GANs).
