Evidence suggests that networks trained on large datasets generalize well not solely because of the numerous training examples, but also class diversity which encourages learning of enriched features. This raises the question of whether…

We study object recognition under the constraint that each object class is only represented by very few observations. Semi-supervised learning, transfer learning, and few-shot recognition all concern with achieving fast generalization with…
