Deciphering Multi-task Learning: Comparative Insights for Similar and Dissimilar Tasks
Abstract: Multi-task learning (MTL), which emerged as a powerful concept in the era of machine learning, employs a shared model trained to handle multiple tasks at the same time. Numerous advantages of this novel approach inspire us to investigate the insights of various tasks with similar (Identification of Sentiment, Emotion, Sarcasm, Irony, Hate and Offensive) and dissimilar (Identification of Sentiment, Claim, Language) genres and to analyze the change in their performances with respect to long and short head approaches. We shed light on the methods employed and critical observations to promote more efficient learning paradigm across similar and dissimilar tasks.
