• Abstract: Multi-task learning is central to many real-world applications. Unfortunately, obtaining labelled data for all tasks is time-consuming, challenging, and expensive. Active Learning (AL) can be used to reduce this burden. Existing techniques typically involve picking images to be annotated and providing annotations for all tasks. In this paper, we show that it is more effective to select not only the images to be annotated but also a subset of tasks for which to provide annotations at each AL iteration. Furthermore, the annotations that are provided can be used to guess pseudo-labels for the tasks that remain unannotated. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on several popular multi-task datasets.

  Partial multi-task learning where training examples are annotated for one of the target tasks is a promising idea in remote sensing. This paper proposes using knowledge distillation to replace the need of ground truths for the alternate task and enhance the performance of such approach.

  Multi-task learning has become increasingly popular in the machine learning field, but its practicality is hindered by the need for large, labeled datasets. We propose Joint-Task Regularization (JTR), an intuitive technique which leverages cross-task relations to simultaneously regularize all tasks in a single joint-task latent space.

  Multi-Task Learning (MTL) is a framework, where multiple related tasks are learned jointly and benefit from a shared representation space. We show that MTL can be successful with classification tasks with little, or non-overlapping annotations. We propose a novel approach, where knowledge exchange is enabled between the tasks via distribution matching.

  The study of multi-task learning has drawn great attention from the community. Despite the remarkable progress, the challenge of optimally learning different tasks simultaneously remains to be explored. Previous works attempt to modify the gradients from different tasks. Yet these methods give a subjective assumption of the relationship between tasks, and the modified gradient may be less accurate. In this paper, we introduce Task Allocation(STA), a mechanism that addresses this issue by a task allocation approach, in which each sample is randomly allocated a subset of tasks. For further progress, we propose Interleaved Task Allocation(ISTA) to iteratively allocate all
