Abstract

Meta-learning, a paradigm that mimics human learning by enabling models to learn from few data, has gained significant attention in recent years. This chapter explores the fundamental concepts and advanced techniques in meta-learning, defining it from two perspectives: task distribution view and learner and meta-learner view. It discusses model-based methods that use specialized models for rapid learning, metric-based methods that transfer knowledge through similar tasks, and optimization-based methods that improve optimization performance across tasks. The chapter also highlights recent advances such as dynamic meta-learning, multimodal meta-learning, meta reinforcement learning, and meta-learning for graphs, showcasing the versatility and potential of meta-learning in various applications. By providing a detailed examination of these approaches, the chapter offers insights into the future directions of meta-learning research and its practical implications.
