Human beings can recognize new objects with only a few labeled examples, however, few-shot learning remains a challenging problem for machine learning systems. Most previous algorithms in few-shot learning only utilize spatial information of the images. In this paper, we propose to integrate the frequency information into the learning model to boost the discrimination ability of the system. We employ Discrete Cosine Transformation (DCT) to generate the frequency representation, then, integrate the features from both the spatial domain and frequency domain for classification. The proposed strategy and its effectiveness are validated with different backbones, datasets, and algorithms. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the frequency information is complementary to the spatial representations in few-shot classification. The classification accuracy is boosted significantly by integrating features from both the spatial and frequency domains in different few-shot learning tasks.

In this paper, we propose a subspace representation learning (SRL) framework to tackle few-shot image classification tasks. It exploits a subspace in local CNN feature space to represent an image, and measures the similarity between two images accord
ing to a weighted subspace distance (WSD). When K images are available for each class, we develop two types of template subspaces to aggregate K-shot information: the prototypical subspace (PS) and the discriminative subspace (DS). Based on the SRL framework, we extend metric learning based techniques from vector to subspace representation. While most previous works adopted global vector representation, using subspace representation can effectively preserve the spatial structure, and diversity within an image. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the SRL framework on three public benchmark datasets: MiniImageNet, TieredImageNet and Caltech-UCSD Birds-200-2011 (CUB), and the experimental results illustrate competitive/superior performance of our method compared to the previous state-of-the-art.
Deep learning and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have made progress in polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) image classification over the past few years. However, a crucial issue has not been addressed, i.e., the requirement of CNNs f
or abundant labeled samples versus the insufficient human annotations of PolSAR images. It is well-known that following the supervised learning paradigm may lead to the overfitting of training data, and the lack of supervision information of PolSAR images undoubtedly aggravates this problem, which greatly affects the generalization performance of CNN-based classifiers in large-scale applications. To handle this problem, in this paper, learning transferrable representations from unlabeled PolSAR data through convolutional architectures is explored for the first time. Specifically, a PolSAR-tailored contrastive learning network (PCLNet) is proposed for unsupervised deep PolSAR representation learning and few-shot classification. Different from the utilization of optical processing methods, a diversity stimulation mechanism is constructed to narrow the application gap between optics and PolSAR. Beyond the conventional supervised methods, PCLNet develops an unsupervised pre-training phase based on the proxy objective of instance discrimination to learn useful representations from unlabeled PolSAR data. The acquired representations are transferred to the downstream task, i.e., few-shot PolSAR classification. Experiments on two widely-used PolSAR benchmark datasets confirm the validity of PCLNet. Besides, this work may enlighten how to efficiently utilize the massive unlabeled PolSAR data to alleviate the greedy demands of CNN-based methods for human annotations.
Both generalized and incremental few-shot learning have to deal with three major challenges: learning novel classes from only few samples per class, preventing catastrophic forgetting of base classes, and classifier calibration across novel and base
classes. In this work we propose a three-stage framework that allows to explicitly and effectively address these challenges. While the first phase learns base classes with many samples, the second phase learns a calibrated classifier for novel classes from few samples while also preventing catastrophic forgetting. In the final phase, calibration is achieved across all classes. We evaluate the proposed framework on four challenging benchmark datasets for image and video few-shot classification and obtain state-of-the-art results for both generalized and incremental few shot learning.
The robustness of deep learning models against adversarial attacks has received increasing attention in recent years. However, both deep learning and adversarial training rely on the availability of a large amount of labeled data and usually do not g
eneralize well to new, unseen classes when only a few training samples are accessible. To address this problem, we explicitly introduce a new challenging problem -- how to learn a robust deep model with limited training samples per class, called defensive few-shot learning in this paper. Simply employing the existing adversarial training techniques in the literature cannot solve this problem. This is because few-shot learning needs to learn transferable knowledge from disjoint auxiliary data, and thus it is invalid to assume the sample-level distribution consistency between the training and test sets as commonly assumed in existing adversarial training techniques. In this paper, instead of assuming such a distribution consistency, we propose to make this assumption at a task-level in the episodic training paradigm in order to better transfer the defense knowledge. Furthermore, inside each task, we design a task-conditioned distribution constraint to narrow the distribution gap between clean and adversarial examples at a sample-level. These give rise to a novel mechanism called multi-level distribution based adversarial training (MDAT) for learning transferable adversarial defense. In addition, a unified $mathcal{F}_{beta}$ score is introduced to evaluate different defense methods under the same principle. Extensive experiments demonstrate that MDAT achieves higher effectiveness and robustness over existing alternatives in the few-shot case.
The ability to incrementally learn new classes is crucial to the development of real-world artificial intelligence systems. In this paper, we focus on a challenging but practical few-shot class-incremental learning (FSCIL) problem. FSCIL requires CNN
models to incrementally learn new classes from very few labelled samples, without forgetting the previously learned ones. To address this problem, we represent the knowledge using a neural gas (NG) network, which can learn and preserve the topology of the feature manifold formed by different classes. On this basis, we propose the TOpology-Preserving knowledge InCrementer (TOPIC) framework. TOPIC mitigates the forgetting of the old classes by stabilizing NGs topology and improves the representation learning for few-shot new classes by growing and adapting NG to new training samples. Comprehensive experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art class-incremental learning methods on CIFAR100, miniImageNet, and CUB200 datasets.
