Bengio and colleagues’ 2009 paper discusses curriculum learning as a training strategy inspired by curricula in education. The paper studies tasks and curricula in specific experiments; it does not show that every task benefits from easy-to-hard training. Self-paced learning is a related approach in which the learner’s objective or current model influences which examples are selected. A common curriculum strategy orders examples from easier to harder, but schedules and difficulty measures vary. Anti-curriculum presents harder examples before easier ones under a defined schedule. Self-paced learning uses current model loss to select examples, often beginning with lower-loss cases; it is related to but distinct from a prescribed curriculum. The original 2010 self-paced paper reports experiments in object localization, noun-phrase coreference, motif finding, and handwritten-digit recognition. The continuation hypothesis proposes beginning with a smoother or easier objective and gradually approaching the target. Evaluate any schedule against a comparable baseline with the same data and compute because benefits vary by task and setup.
