....these observations to machine learning what kind of advantage is there in setting a learner to work on several tasks sequentially or simultaneously Intuitively, there should certainly be some advantage, especially if the tasks are closely related in some way. And, indeed, much experimental work [Bax95, IE96, Thr96, Hes98, Car97] has validated this intuition. However, thus far, there has been relatively little progress on theoretical justi cation for these results. Relatedness of tasks is key to the multitask learning (MTL) approach. Obviously, one cannot expect that information gathered through the learning of a set of ....

....field centers x i were evenly distributed with a spacing of 3 cm, and we set # = 1.8 cm. These parameters were determined empirically. With these, M = 193 receptive fields served to cover the training region. The output units had linear activation functions , while to accelermultitask training [6], we found no decrease in localization error. Typically an accurate estimate of the location is much more important than of the moment direction or strength. We also found that networks trained without the moment were more robust. This can easily occur in practice, for instance when the head ....

.... Similarity has been studied extensively in areas such as pattern recognition and adaptive nearest neighbors [10, 6, 1] character recognition, text based information retrieval [4, 7] and case based reasoning [5] Closely related to models of similarity is the problem of multitask learning [3], where we attempt to use information learned from one task to improve performance on a related task. In this talk, I explore the relationship between Bayes optimal classification, similarity measures, and multitask learning. The key for making the connection is the conditional distribution P ....

....is typically smaller, and dependencies between di erent classes w.r.t. membership can be taken into account and may even be explicitated. Advantages of learning a single model for multiple related prediction tasks have been reported several times in the literature (see e.g. 5] for decision trees, [7, 1] for neural networks, 24] for text classi cation) While our setting is one of assigning a set of classes to an instance, we look in more detail at the case where the classes are ordered in a hierarchy. This hierarchy concisely conveys relevant information about the similarity and di erences ....
