Multi-task learning (MTL) aims to improve the generalization of several related tasks by learning them jointly. As a comparison, in addition to the joint training scheme, modern meta-learning allows unseen tasks with limited labels during…
Most few-shot learning models utilize only one modality of data. We would like to investigate qualitatively and quantitatively how much will the model improve if we add an extra modality (i.e. text description of the image), and how it…
