There are many ways to contribute to ProgLearn, with the most common ones
being contribution of code or documentation to the project. Improving the
documentation is no less important than improving the library itself. If you
find a typo in the documentation, or have made improvements, do not hesitate to
submit a GitHub pull request. Documentation can be found under the
[docs/](https://github.com/neurodata/progressive-learning/tree/master/docs) directory.

But there are many other ways to help. In particular answering queries on the
[issue tracker](https://github.com/neurodata/progressive-learning/issues), and
investigating bugs are very valuable contributions that decrease the burden on
[issue tracker](https://github.com/neurodata/ProgLearn/issues), and
investigating bugs are very valuable contributions that decrease the burden on
the project maintainers.

Another way to contribute is to report issues you're facing, and give a "thumbs
up" on issues that others reported and that are relevant to you. It also helps
us if you spread the word: reference the project from your blog and articles,
link to it from your website, or simply star it in GitHub to say "I use it".

# Overview
The natural process of biological learning involves progressive acquisition of new information developing on past knowledge and experiences, which often leads to a performance improvement on a given task. Learning a second language, for instance, is associated with higher performance in an individual’s native language compared to that of monolinguals. In classical machine learning, the process usually begins from the state of <i>tabula rasa</i>, zero knowledge, and is optimized for a single task. The issues arise when the system is sequentially optimized for multiple tasks exhibiting “catastrophic forgetting,” diminishing performance of previously learned tasks. One of the current limitations of artificial intelligence revolves around this inability to transfer knowledge. <br><br>
The progressive learning package utilizes representation ensembling algorithms to sequentially learn a representation for each task and ensemble both old and new representations for all future decisions. Here, two complementary representation ensembling algorithms based on decision forests (Lifelong Forest) and deep networks (Lifelong Network) demonstrate forward and backward knowledge transfer of tasks on multiple real datasets, including both vision and language applications.
