Continual Learning aims to learn from a stream of tasks, being able to remember at the same time both new and old tasks. We propose a scenario that holds immense appeal for various real-world applications, where a model adapts to handle a stream of machines with distribution shifts Tests on real packaging data proved the feasibility of Continual Learning for addressing such problems. Our study uncovers the limitations of previous algorithms in the Domain Incremental Learning. Our research presents a novel approach for tackling multi-label tasks in Continual Learning, achieving superior performance compared to existing approaches found in the literature. Our method not only achieves optimal performance but also has logarithmic complexity, significantly reducing computation times.
