immediately solve all the tasks at the same time this is usually not possible in metal learning problems you can't have one model that classifies you know that does the five Way classification with dogs and lions and also with you know the pianos and the cats but you can view multitask learning is a special case where Phi is just equal to theta another very closely related problem setting is type of parameter optimization and auto ml these can be cast as metal learning they're actually they are essentially metal learning
