The meta-learning method for the ensemble model based on situational meta-task.
Frontiers in neurorobotics(2024)
摘要
Introduction:The meta-learning methods have been widely used to solve the problem of few-shot learning. Generally, meta-learners are trained on a variety of tasks and then generalized to novel tasks.
Methods:However, existing meta-learning methods do not consider the relationship between meta-tasks and novel tasks during the meta-training period, so that initial models of the meta-learner provide less useful meta-knowledge for the novel tasks. This leads to a weak generalization ability on novel tasks. Meanwhile, different initial models contain different meta-knowledge, which leads to certain differences in the learning effect of novel tasks during the meta-testing period. Therefore, this article puts forward a meta-optimization method based on situational meta-task construction and cooperation of multiple initial models. First, during the meta-training period, a method of constructing situational meta-task is proposed, and the selected candidate task sets provide more effective meta-knowledge for novel tasks. Then, during the meta-testing period, an ensemble model method based on meta-optimization is proposed to minimize the loss of inter-model cooperation in prediction, so that multiple models cooperation can realize the learning of novel tasks.
Results:The above-mentioned methods are applied to popular few-shot character datasets and image recognition datasets. Furthermore, the experiment results indicate that the proposed method achieves good effects in few-shot classification tasks.
Discussion:In future work, we will extend our methods to provide more generalized and useful meta-knowledge to the model during the meta-training period when the novel few-shot tasks are completely invisible.
