Few-shot learning is a concept in machine learning where the model is designed to learn and make accurate predictions or decisions based on a very limited amount of training data. Traditional machine learning models typically require large datasets to learn effectively. However, few-shot learning techniques enable AI models to generalize from a small number of examples, often just a handful or even a single instance. This approach is especially valuable in situations where collecting large datasets is impractical or impossible, such as specialized academic fields or rare languages. 3, record 1, English, - few%2Dshot%20learning
