How many tasks are needed for meta-learning?
This is an empirical question, essentially how many tasks do you need data for, to make a useful meta learning model (e.g. using MAML)? I'm looking for ranges based on personal experience or if anyone has done research on the topic and you know of…

What is $ \nabla_{\theta_{k-1}} \theta_{k}$ in the context of MAML?
I am attempting to fully understand the explicit derivation and computation of the Hessian and how it is used in MAML. I came across this blog: https://lilianweng.github.io/lil-log/2018/11/30/meta-learning.html.
Specifically, could someone help to…

How does MAML inner loop optimization works?
I started to learn meta-learning, reading the MAML paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/1703.03400.pdf
In the inner loop, I am calculating adapted parameters for each task, I will be doing multiple steps of inner SGD.
I will calculate adapted parameters…

How to split data for meta-learning?
I've been trying to understand the meta-learning paradigm, more precisely, the optimization-based models, such as MAML, but I have a hard time understanding how I should correctly split my data to train such models.
For example, let's consider we…

Understanding the derivation of the first-order model-agnostic meta-learning
According to the authors of this paper, to improve the performance, they decided to
drop backward pass and using a first-order approximation
I found a blog which discussed how to derive the math but got stuck along the way (please refer to the…

Meta-learning libraries that work on Google Colab in 2025 (Python 3.11.11)?
learn2learn (https://github.com/learnables/learn2learn, https://pypi.org/project/learn2learn/, http://slack.learn2learn.net/) used to work just fine until 2024, but Google Colab seems to have updated its Python version to 3.11.11, which seems to…

Is my MAML implementation correct?
im trying to implement the MAML algorithm in the Reinforcement Learning domain but am not achieving fast adaptation to my validation tasks.
I assume that something may be wrong with my meta loss computation, and how im calculating the second order…

Which meta-learning approach selection methodology should I use for similarity learning of an image?
Meta-learning has 3 broad approaches: model, metric and optimization-based approach. Each of them has its own sub-approach, like matching network, meta-agonistic and Siamese-based network, and so on.
How do I decide which approach to select for a…
