The 10th Israel Machine Vision Conference (IMVC) took place on March 18, 2019 at Pavilion 10, EXPO Tel Aviv.
Dr. Leonid Karlinsky spoke at a conference on “Few-Shot Object X, or How Can We Train A DL Model with Only Few Examples”.

Abstract:
Learning to classify and localize instances of objects that belong to new categories, while training on just one or very few examples, is a long-standing challenge in modern computer vision. This problem is generally referred to as ‘few-shot learning’. It is particularly challenging for modern deep-learning based methods, which tend to be notoriously hungry for training data. In this talk I will cover several of our recent research papers offering advances on these problems using example synthesis (hallucination) and metric learning techniques and achieving state-of-the-art results on known and new few-shot benchmarks. In addition to covering the relatively well studied few-shot classification task, I will show how our approaches can address the yet under-studied few-shot localization and multi-label few-shot classification tasks. In addition to this talk, a detailed tutorial covering the few-shot learning field in general will be given by Dr. Joseph Shtok from my team.
