A Survey on Few-Shot Learning in Natural Language Processing
Abstract
The annotated dataset is the foundation for Supervised Natural Language Processing. However, the cost of obtaining dataset is high. In recent years, the Few-Shot Learning has gradually attracted the attention of researchers. From the definition, in this paper, we conclude the difference in Few-Shot Learning between Natural Language Processing and Computer Vision. On that basis, the current Few-Shot Learning on Natural Language Processing is summarized, including Transfer Learning, Meta Learning and Knowledge Distillation. Furthermore, we conclude the solutions to Few-Shot Learning in Natural Language Processing, such as the method based on Distant Supervision, Meta Learning and Knowledge Distillation. Finally, we present the challenges facing Few-Shot Learning in Natural Language Processing.
