References

Our code is based on Chen's contribution. Specifically, except for our core design, cosine network and BSNet, everything else （e.g. backbone, dataset, relation network, evaluation standards, hyper-parameters）are built on and integrated in https://github.com/wyharveychen/CloserLookFewShot.
