Abstract

This tutorial provides an overview of two important and correlated (in many cases intersectional) topics in deep learning: transfer learning, and multi-task learning. Transfer learning focuses on transferring knowledge learned in one problem to a different yet related problem, while multi-task learning attempts to solve multiple tasks in one stroke by exploiting the commonalities across the multiple tasks. In this tutorial, I will present an overview of the motivations, methodologies, as well as applications of these two learning paradigms in fields such as natural language processing and computer vision. I will also provide two concrete examples of these paradigms in a hands-on workshop.
