learn2learn is a software library for meta-learning research.
learn2learn builds on top of PyTorch to accelerate two aspects of the meta-learning research cycle:
- fast prototyping, essential in letting researchers quickly try new ideas, and
- correct reproducibility, ensuring that these ideas are evaluated fairly.
learn2learn provides low-level utilities and unified interface to create new algorithms and domains, together with high-quality implementations of existing algorithms and standardized benchmarks. It retains compatibility with torchvision, torchaudio, torchtext, cherry, and any other PyTorch-based library you might be using.

pip install learn2learn
The following snippets provide a sneak peek at the functionalities of learn2learn.
Few-Shot Learning with MAML
For more algorithms (ProtoNets, ANIL, Meta-SGD, Reptile, Meta-Curvature, KFO) refer to the examples folder.
Most of them can be implemented with with the GBML
wrapper. (documentation).
maml = l2l.algorithms.MAML(model, lr=0.1)
opt = torch.optim.SGD(maml.parameters(), lr=0.001)
for iteration in range(10):
opt.zero_grad()
task_model = maml.clone() # torch.clone() for nn.Modules
adaptation_loss = compute_loss(task_model)
task_model.adapt(adaptation_loss) # computes gradient, update task_model in-place
evaluation_loss = compute_loss(task_model)
evaluation_loss.backward() # gradients w.r.t. maml.parameters()
opt.step()
Meta-Descent with Hypergradient
Learn any kind of optimization algorithm with the LearnableOptimizer
. (example and documentation)
linear = nn.Linear(784, 10)
transform = l2l.optim.ModuleTransform(l2l.nn.Scale)
metaopt = l2l.optim.LearnableOptimizer(linear, transform, lr=0.01) # metaopt has .step()
opt = torch.optim.SGD(metaopt.parameters(), lr=0.001) # metaopt also has .parameters()
metaopt.zero_grad()
opt.zero_grad()
error = loss(linear(X), y)
error.backward()
opt.step() # update metaopt
metaopt.step() # update linear
Custom Few-Shot Dataset
Many standardized datasets (Omniglot, mini-/tiered-ImageNet, FC100, CIFAR-FS) are readily available in learn2learn.vision.datasets
.
(documentation)
dataset = l2l.data.MetaDataset(MyDataset()) # any PyTorch dataset
transforms = [ # Easy to define your own transform
l2l.data.transforms.NWays(dataset, n=5),
l2l.data.transforms.KShots(dataset, k=1),
l2l.data.transforms.LoadData(dataset),
]
taskset = TaskDataset(dataset, transforms, num_tasks=20000)
for task in taskset:
X, y = task
# Meta-train on the task
Environments and Utilities for Meta-RL
Parallelize your own meta-environments with AsyncVectorEnv
, or use the standardized ones.
(documentation)
def make_env():
env = l2l.gym.HalfCheetahForwardBackwardEnv()
env = cherry.envs.ActionSpaceScaler(env)
return env
env = l2l.gym.AsyncVectorEnv([make_env for _ in range(16)]) # uses 16 threads
for task_config in env.sample_tasks(20):
env.set_task(task) # all threads receive the same task
state = env.reset() # use standard Gym API
action = my_policy(env)
env.step(action)
Differentiable Optimization
Learn and differentiate through updates of PyTorch Modules. (documentation)
model = MyModel()
transform = l2l.optim.KroneckerTransform(l2l.nn.KroneckerLinear)
learned_update = l2l.optim.ParameterUpdate( # learnable update function
model.parameters(), transform)
clone = l2l.clone_module(model) # torch.clone() for nn.Modules
error = loss(clone(X), y)
updates = learned_update( # similar API as torch.autograd.grad
error,
clone.parameters(),
create_graph=True,
)
l2l.update_module(clone, updates=updates)
loss(clone(X), y).backward() # Gradients w.r.t model.parameters() and learned_update.parameters()
A human-readable changelog is available in the CHANGELOG.md file.

- TorchMeta is similar library, with a focus on datasets for supervised meta-learning.
- higher is a PyTorch library that enables differentiating through optimization inner-loops. While they monkey-patch
nn.Module
to be stateless, learn2learn retains the stateful PyTorch look-and-feel. For more information, refer to their ArXiv paper. - We are thankful to the following open-source implementations which helped guide the design of learn2learn:
- Tristan Deleu's pytorch-maml-rl
- Jonas Rothfuss' ProMP
- Kwonjoon Lee's MetaOptNet
- Han-Jia Ye's and Hexiang Hu's FEAT
