few-shot learning and meta learning

Humans can recognize new object classes from very few instances. However, most machine learning techniques require thousands of examples to achieve similar performance. The goal of few-shot learning is to classify new data having seen only a few training examples.

 N-way-K-shot classification. Here, we aim to discriminate between $\mathrm{N classes\; with K examples\; of\; each.}$

time series classification and forecasting 是可以用CNN做的，用的conv1D, 但是不知道和RNN相比效果怎么样？
