## Abstract

<img src='imgs/property1_figure.png' width='' height=''>
Model-agnostic meta-learning (MAML) is one of the most successful meta-learning algorithms. 
It has a bi-level optimization structure where the outer-loop process learns a shared initialization and the inner-loop process optimizes task-specific weights. 
Although MAML relies on the standard gradient descent in the inner-loop, recent studies have shown that controlling the inner-loop’s gradient descent with a meta-learned preconditioner can be beneficial. 
Existing preconditioners, however, cannot simultaneously adapt in a task-specific and path-dependent way. 
Additionally, they do not satisfy the Riemannian metric condition, which can enable the steepest descent learning with preconditioned gradient. 
In this study, we propose Geometry-Adaptive Preconditioned gradient descent (GAP) that can overcome the limitations in MAML; 
GAP can efficiently meta-learn a preconditioner that is dependent on task-specific parameters, and its preconditioner can be shown to be a Riemannian metric. 
Thanks to the two properties, the geometry-adaptive preconditioner is effective for improving the inner-loop optimization. 
Experiment results show that GAP outperforms the state-of-the-art MAML family and preconditioned gradient descent-MAML (PGD-MAML) family in a variety of few-shot learning tasks.

## Our main contributions
- We propose `a new preconditioned gradient descent method called GAP`, where it learns a preconditioner that enables a geometry-adaptive learning in the inner-loop optimization.
- We prove that GAP's preconditioner has two desirable properties: (1) It is `both task-specific and path-dependent`. (2) It is a `Riemannian metric`.
- For large-scale architectures, we provide `a low-computational approximation called Approximate GAP` that can be theoretically shown to approximate the GAP method. 
- For popular few-shot learning benchmark tasks, we empirically show that `GAP outperforms the state-of-the-art MAML family and PGD-MAML family`.
