Abstract
A process for training and sharing generic functional modules across multiple diverse (architecture, task) pairs for solving multiple diverse problems is described. The process is based on decomposing the general multi-task learning problem into several fine-grained and equally-sized subproblems, or pseudo-tasks. Training a set of (architecture, task) pairs then corresponds to solving a set of related pseudo-tasks, whose relationships can be exploited by shared functional modules. An efficient search algorithm is introduced for optimizing the mapping between pseudo-tasks and the modules that solve them, while simultaneously training the modules themselves.
