Combinets: Learning New Classifiers via Recombination
share
Problems with few examples of a new class of objects prove challenging to most classifiers. One solution to is to reuse existing data through transfer methods such as one-shot learning or domain adaption. However these approaches require an explicit hand-authored or learned definition of how reuse can occur. We present an approach called conceptual expansion that learns how to reuse existing machine-learned knowledge when classifying new cases. We evaluate our approach by adding new classes of objects to the CIFAR-10 dataset and varying the number of available examples of these new classes.
