The paper "The Dynamics of Task Interactions in Deep Linear Multi-Task Networks" has been accepted at Transactions on Machine Learning Research (TMLR), presented in a five-part thread.
The work tackles why some tasks help each other while others interfere in multi-task learning: it extends the Riccati-based framework to multi-task linear networks, analytically characterizing how task alignment and magnitude imbalance shape learning dynamics.
