Many deep learning applications, like keyword spotting [1], [2], require the incorporation of new concepts (classes) over time, referred to as Class Incremental Learning (CIL). The major challenge in CIL is catastrophic forgetting, i.e., preserving as much of the old knowledge as possible while lear...
