模型自动生成新类别数据，避免遗忘并提升未来学习能力。

Continual learning requires balancing plasticity and stability while mitigating catastrophic forgetting. Inspired by human dreaming as a mechanism for internal simulation and knowledge restructuring, we introduce Dream2Learn (D2L), a framework in which a model autonomously generates structured synthetic experiences from its own internal representations and uses them for self-improvement. Rather than reconstructing past data as in generative replay, D2L enables a classifier to create novel, semantically distinct dreamed classes that are coherent with its learned knowledge yet do not correspond to previously observed data. These dreamed samples are produced by conditioning a frozen diffusion model through soft prompt optimization driven by the classifier itself. The generated data are not used to replace memory, but to expand and reorganize the representation space, effectively allowing the network to self-train on internally synthesized concepts. By integrating dreamed classes into continual training, D2L proactively structures latent features to support forward knowledge transfer and adaptation to future tasks. This prospective self-training mechanism mirrors the role of sleep in consolidating and reorganizing memory, turning internal simulations into a tool for improved generalization. Experiments on Mini-ImageNet, FG-ImageNet, and ImageNet-R demonstrate that D2L consistently outperforms strong rehearsal-based baselines and achieves positive forward transfer, confirming its ability to enhance adaptability through internally generated training signals.
