In the last chapter, we learned how MAML is used for finding an optimal parameter that's generalizable across several tasks. We saw how MAML computes this optimal parameter by calculating meta gradients and performing meta optimization. We also saw adversarial meta learning, which acts as an enhancement to MAML by adding adversarial samples and allowing MAML to wrestle between clean and adversarial samples to find the optimal parameter. We also saw CAML—or, context adaptation for meta learning. In this chapter, we'll learn about Meta-SGD, another meta learning algorithm that's used for performing learning quickly. Unlike MAML, Meta-SGD will not just find the optimal parameter, it will also find the optimal learning rate and an update direction. We'll see how to use Meta-SGD in supervised and reinforcement learning settings. We&apos...

Overview of this book
Meta learning is an exciting research trend in machine learning, which enables a model to understand the learning process. Unlike other ML paradigms, with meta learning you can learn from small datasets faster.
Hands-On Meta Learning with Python starts by explaining the fundamentals of meta learning and helps you understand the concept of learning to learn. You will delve into various one-shot learning algorithms, like siamese, prototypical, relation and memory-augmented networks by implementing them in TensorFlow and Keras. As you make your way through the book, you will dive into state-of-the-art meta learning algorithms such as MAML, Reptile, and CAML. You will then explore how to learn quickly with Meta-SGD and discover how you can perform unsupervised learning using meta learning with CACTUs. In the concluding chapters, you will work through recent trends in meta learning such as adversarial meta learning, task agnostic meta learning, and meta imitation learning.
By the end of this book, you will be familiar with state-of-the-art meta learning algorithms and able to enable human-like cognition for your machine learning models.
