#### Why Curriculum Learning?

Self-Supervised Learning has become an exciting direction in AI community. 

  - Bengio: "..." (ICML 2009)

  

Biological inspired learning scheme.

  - Learn the concepts by increasing complexity, in order to allow learner to exploit previously learned concepts and thus ease the abstraction of new ones.
