Introduction to Transfer Learning

Abstract

This chapter gives an overview of transfer learning algorithms so that readers can learn and understand detailed algorithms in other chapters with a thorough view. To facilitate such an understanding, we establish a unified representation framework through which most of existing methods can be derived. Then, other chapters will introduce more details on each kind of algorithms. We want to emphasize that you are encouraged to do such overview when learning new materials.
