• Abstract: Modern deep learning techniques have illustrated their excellent capabilities in many areas, but relies on large training data. Optimization-based meta-learning train a model on a variety tasks, such that it can solve new learning tasks using only a small number of training samples.However, these methods assumes that training and test dataare identically and independently distributed. To overcome such limitation, in this paper, we propose invariant meta learning for out-of-distribution tasks. Specifically, invariant meta learning find invariant optimal meta-initialization,and fast adapt to out-of-distribution tasks with regularization penalty. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed invariant meta learning on out-of-distribution few-shot tasks.

  Meta-learning aims to learn general knowledge with diverse training tasks conducted from limited data, and then transfer it to new tasks. It is commonly believed that increasing task diversity will enhance the generalization ability of meta-learning models. This paper challenges this view through empirical and theoretical analysis.

We find that their performances are sub-optimal or even lag far behind the single-task baseline. We propose a simple yet effective pretrain-adapt-finetune paradigm for general multi-task training.

  Few-shot learning aims to learn representations that can tackle novel tasks given a small number of examples.

  splitting data from each task into train and validation sets during meta-training. We argue that the train-validation split encourages the learned representation to be low-rank without compromising on expressivity. Since sample efficiency benefits from low-rankness, the splitting strategy will require very few samples to solve unseen test tasks.

  In many real-world problems, collecting a large number of labeled samples is infeasible. Few-shot learning is the dominant approach to address this issue, where the objective is to quickly adapt to novel categories in presence of a limited number of samples. We propose a novel training mechanism that simultaneously enforces equivariance and invariance to a general set of geometric transformations.
