• Abstract: A successful deep learning model is dependent on extensive training data and processing power and time (known as training costs). There exist many tasks without enough number of labeled data to train a deep learning model. Further, the demand is rising for running deep learning models on edge devices with limited processing capacity and training time. Deep transfer learning (DTL) methods are the answer to tackle such limitations, e.g., fine-tuning a pre-trained model on a massive semi-related dataset proved to be a simple and effective method for many problems. DTLs handle limited target data concerns as well as drastically reduce the training costs. In this paper, the definition and taxonomy of deep transfer learning is reviewed. Then we focus on the sub-category of network-based DTLs since it is the most common types of DTLs that have been applied to various applications in the last decade.

  Employing pre-trained Large Language Models (LLMs) has become the de facto standard in Natural Language Processing (NLP) despite their extensive data requirements. Motivated by the recent surge in research focused on training LLMs with limited data, this paper surveys recent transfer learning approaches to optimize model performance in downstream tasks where data is scarce.

  Large Language Model (LLM) pretraining traditionally relies on autoregressive language modeling on randomly sampled data blocks from web-scale datasets. We take inspiration from human learning techniques like spaced repetition to hypothesize that random data sampling for LLMs leads to high training cost and low quality models which tend to forget data. In order to effectively commit web-scale information to long-term memory, we propose the LFR (Learn, Focus, and Review) pedagogy.

  In computer vision, neural network models struggle to continually learn new concepts without forgetting what has been learnt in the past. We develop a solution called Adaptive Distillation of Adapters (ADA), which is developed to perform continual learning. We empirically demonstrate on different classification tasks that this method maintains a good predictive performance without retraining the model.
