learning approaches have caused tremendous advances in many areas of computer
science. Deep learning is a branch of machine learning where the learning
process is done using deep and complex architectures such as recurrent
convolutional artificial neural networks. Many computer science applications
have utilized deep learning such as computer vision, speech recognition,
natural language processing, sentiment analysis, social network analysis, and
robotics. The success of deep learning enabled the application of learning
models such as reinforcement learning in which the learning process is only
done by trial-and-error, solely from actions rewards or punishments. Deep
reinforcement learning come to create systems that can learn how to adapt in
the real world. As deep learning utilizes deep and complex architectures, the
learning process usually is time and effort consuming and need huge labeled
data sets. This inspired the introduction of transfer and multi-task learning
approaches to better exploit the available data during training and adapt
previously learned knowledge to emerging domains, tasks, or applications. Despite
the fact that many research activities is ongoing in these areas, many
challenging are still unsolved. This workshop will bring together researchers
working on deep learning, working on the intersection of deep learning and
reinforcement learning, and/or using transfer learning to simplify deep
leaning, and it will help researchers with expertise in one of these fields to
learn about the others. The workshop also aims to bridge the gap between
theories and practices by providing the researchers and practitioners the
opportunity to share ideas and discuss and criticize current theories and
results.<span></span></span></p>
