contents We introduce an algorithm for tackling the problem of unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) in continual learning (CL) scenarios. The primary objective is to maintain model generalization under domain shift when new domains arrive continually through updating a base model when only unlabeled data is accessible in subsequent tasks. While there are many existing UDA algorithms, they typically require access to both the source and target domain datasets simultaneously. Conversely, existing CL approaches can handle tasks that all have labeled data. Our solution is based on stabilizing the learned internal distribution to enhances the model generalization on new domains. The internal distribution is modeled by network responses in hidden layer. We model this internal distribution using a Gaussian mixture model (GMM ) and update the model by matching the internally learned distribution of new domains to the estimated GMM. Additionally, we leverage experience replay to overcome the problem of catastrophic forgetting, where the model loses previously acquired knowledge when learning new tasks. We offer theoretical analysis to explain why our algorithm would work. We also offer extensive comparative and analytic experiments to demonstrate that our method is effective. We perform experiments on four benchmark datasets to demonstrate that our approach is effective.
