Query: Multi-Task Learning for Dense Prediction Tasks: A Survey   With the advent of deep learning, many dense prediction tasks, i.e. tasks
that produce pixel-level predictions, have seen significant performance
improvements. The typical approach is to learn these tasks in isolation, that
is, a separate neural network is trained for each individual task. Yet, recent
multi-task learning (MTL) techniques have shown promising results w.r.t.
performance, computations and/or memory footprint, by jointly tackling multiple
tasks through a learned shared representation. In this survey, we provide a
well-rounded view on state-of-the-art deep learning approaches for MTL in
computer vision, explicitly emphasizing on dense prediction tasks. Our
contributions concern the following. First, we consider MTL from a network
architecture point-of-view. We include an extensive overview and discuss the
advantages/disadvantages of recent popular MTL models. Second, we examine
various optimization methods to tackle the joint learning of multiple tasks. We
summarize the qualitative elements of these works and explore their
commonalities and differences. Finally, we provide an extensive experimental
evaluation across a variety of dense prediction benchmarks to examine the pros
and cons of the different methods, including both architectural and
optimization based strategies.
