| Research Abstract |
In the environments where multiple pattern recognition tasks with some relatedness are learned sequentially, it is known that the learning is conducted efficiently even with a small number of training data by using "knowledge transfer" from one task to another. In the research project, we developed a multitask learning algorithm with an efficient knowledge transfer mechanism where a useful feature space is learned incrementally in an efficient way by transferring a part of previous learned knowledge to an unknown task. The proposed multitask learning algorithm is implemented as a person identification system using face images and the effectiveness of this system is verified.
