Query: Sequoia: A Software Framework to Unify Continual Learning Research   The field of Continual Learning (CL) seeks to develop algorithms that
accumulate knowledge and skills over time through interaction with
non-stationary environments. In practice, a plethora of evaluation procedures
(settings) and algorithmic solutions (methods) exist, each with their own
potentially disjoint set of assumptions. This variety makes measuring progress
in CL difficult. We propose a taxonomy of settings, where each setting is
described as a set of assumptions. A tree-shaped hierarchy emerges from this
view, where more general settings become the parents of those with more
restrictive assumptions. This makes it possible to use inheritance to share and
reuse research, as developing a method for a given setting also makes it
directly applicable onto any of its children. We instantiate this idea as a
publicly available software framework called Sequoia, which features a wide
variety of settings from both the Continual Supervised Learning (CSL) and
Continual Reinforcement Learning (CRL) domains. Sequoia also includes a growing
suite of methods which are easy to extend and customize, in addition to more
specialized methods from external libraries. We hope that this new paradigm and
its first implementation can help unify and accelerate research in CL. You can
