摘要(Abstract)

Meta-learning has been proposed as a framework to address the challenging few-shot learning setting.

元学习被提议作为一个框架来解决具有挑战性的少数镜头学习环境。.

The key idea is to leverage a large number of similar few-shot tasks in order to learn how to adapt a base-learner to a new task for which only a few labeled samples are available.

关键的想法是利用大量类似的少量任务，以便学习如何使基础学习者适应一项新任务，而该任务只有少量标记样本可用。.

As deep neural networks (DNNs) tend to overfit using a few samples only, typical meta-learning models use shallow neural networks, thus limiting its effectiveness.

由于深度神经网络（DNN）往往只使用少数样本进行过度拟合，典型的元学习模型使用浅层神经网络，因此限制了其有效性。.

In order to achieve top performance, some recent works tried to use the DNNs pre-trained on large-scale datasets but mostly in straight-forward manners, e.g., (1) taking their weights as a warm start of meta-training, and (2) freezing their convolutional layers as the feature extractor of base-learners.

为了获得最佳性能，最近的一些工作尝试使用在大规模数据集上预先训练的DNN，但主要是以直接的方式，例如，（1）将其权重作为元训练的热身开始，（2）冻结其卷积层作为基础学习者的特征提取器。.

In this paper, we propose a novel approach called meta-transfer learning (MTL), which learns to transfer the weights of a deep NN for few-shot learning tasks.

在本文中，我们提出了一种称为元迁移学习（MTL）的新方法，该方法学习在少数镜头学习任务中转移深度神经网络的权重。.

Specifically, meta refers to training multiple tasks, and transfer is achieved by learning scaling and shifting functions of DNN weights (and biases) for each task.

具体来说，meta指的是训练多个任务，而转移是通过学习每个任务的DNN权重（和偏差）的缩放和移位函数来实现的。.

To further boost the learning efficiency of MTL, we introduce the hard task (HT) meta-batch scheme as an effective learning curriculum of few-shot classification tasks.

为了进一步提高MTL的学习效率，我们引入了硬任务（HT）元批处理方案，作为一种有效的少镜头分类任务学习课程。.

We conduct experiments for five-class few-shot classification tasks on three challenging benchmarks, miniImageNet, tieredImageNet, and Fewshot-CIFAR100 (FC100), in both supervised and semi-supervised settings.

我们在监督和半监督环境下，在miniImageNet、tieredImageNet和Fewshot-CIFAR100（FC100）这三个具有挑战性的基准上，对五类少镜头分类任务进行了实验。.

Extensive comparisons to related works validate that our MTL approach trained with the proposed HT meta-batch scheme achieves top performance.

通过与相关工作的广泛比较，验证了我们使用所提出的HT元批处理方案训练的MTL方法达到了最佳性能。.

An ablation study also shows that both components contribute to fast convergence and high accuracy…

消融研究还表明，这两种成分都有助于快速收敛和高精度。。.
