Provable Data Scaling Law for Meta Learning via Complexity Minimization
Researchers have developed a new theoretical framework called complexity minimization to explain the benefits of pre-training in machine learning. This framework demonstrates how increasing the scale of pre-training data provably reduces the complexity required for downstream tasks. Empirical tests show that integrating complexity regularization into existing meta-learning methods enhances sample efficiency for few-shot adaptation. AI
