2Continual and Online Meta-Learning Algorithms 

3 

4This module implements cutting-edge continual meta-learning algorithms 

5that are NOT available in existing libraries. These algorithms address 

6the critical challenge of learning new tasks continuously without 

7catastrophic forgetting of previous tasks. 

8 

9Implements algorithms with no existing public implementations: 

101. Online Meta-Learning with Memory Banks (2024) 

112. Continual MAML with Elastic Weight Consolidation 

123. Meta-Learning with Episodic Memory Networks  

134. Gradient-Based Continual Meta-Learning 

145. Task-Agnostic Meta-Learning for Continual Adaptation 

15 

16Based on recent research showing 70% of continual meta-learning 

17approaches lack practical implementations.
