DMN4: Few-shot Learning via Discriminative Mutual Nearest Neighbor Neural Network
Few-shot learning (FSL) aims to classify images under low-data regimes, where the conventional pooled global feature is likely to lose useful local characteristics. Recent work has achieved promising performances by using deep descriptors. They generally take all deep descriptors from neural networks into consideration while ignoring that some of them are useless in classification due to their limited receptive field, e.g., task-irrelevant descriptors could be misleading and multiple aggregative descriptors from background clutter could even overwhelm the object's presence. In this paper, we argue that a Mutual Nearest Neighbor (MNN) relation should be established to explicitly select the query descriptors that are most relevant to each task and discard less relevant ones from aggregative clutters in FSL. Specifically, we propose Discriminative Mutual Nearest Neighbor Neural Network (DMN4) for FSL. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method outperforms the existing state-of-the-arts on both fine-grained and generalized datasets.

Discriminative Nearest Neighbor Few-Shot Intent Detection by Transferring Natural Language Inference
Intent detection is one of the core components of goal-oriented dialog systems, and detecting out-of-scope (OOS) intents is also a practically important skill. Few-shot learning is attracting much attention to mitigate d…
