• Abstract summary: We introduce a practical Domain Adaptation paradigm where a source-trained model is used to facilitate adaptation in the absence of the source dataset in future. We present an objective way to quantify inheritability to enable the selection of the most suitable source model for a given target domain, even in the absence of the source data.

• Abstract: There has been a tremendous progress in Domain Adaptation (DA) for visual recognition tasks. Particularly, open-set DA has gained considerable attention wherein the target domain contains additional unseen categories. Existing open-set DA approaches demand access to a labeled source dataset along with unlabeled target instances. However, this reliance on co-existing source and target data is highly impractical in scenarios where data-sharing is restricted due to its proprietary nature or privacy concerns. Addressing this, we introduce a practical DA paradigm where a source-trained model is used to facilitate adaptation in the absence of the source dataset in future. To this end, we formalize knowledge inheritability as a novel concept and propose a simple yet effective solution to realize inheritable models suitable for the above practical paradigm. Further, we present an objective way to quantify inheritability to enable the selection of the most suitable source model for a given target domain, even in the absence of the source data. We provide theoretical insights followed by a thorough empirical evaluation demonstrating state-of-the-art open-set domain adaptation performance.

  Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) is an effective approach to tackle the issue of domain shift. UDA methods try to align the source and target representations to improve the generalization on the target domain. The Source-Free Adaptation Domain (SFDA) setting aims to alleviate these concerns by adapting a source-trained model for the target domain without requiring access to the source data.

  Universal Model ADaptation (UMAD) framework handles both UDA scenarios without access to source data. We develop an informative consistency score to help distinguish unknown samples from known samples. Experiments on open-set and open-partial-set UDA scenarios demonstrate that UMAD exhibits comparable, if not superior, performance to state-of-the-art data-dependent methods.

  Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) can tackle the challenge that convolutional neural network-based approaches for semantic segmentation heavily rely on the pixel-level annotated data. We propose a source-free domain adaptation framework for semantic segmentation, namely SFDA, in which only a well-trained source model and an unlabeled target domain dataset are available for adaptation.

  We propose a novel two-stage learning process for domain adaptation. In the Procurement stage, we aim to equip the model for future source-free deployment, assuming no prior knowledge of the upcoming category-gap and domain-shift. In the Deployment stage, the goal is to design a unified adaptation algorithm capable of operating across a wide range of category-gaps.

  Unsupervised adaptationUDA (UDA) aims to leverage the knowledge learned from a labeled source dataset to solve similar tasks in a new unlabeled domain. Prior UDA methods typically require to access the source data when learning to adapt the model. This work tackles a practical setting where only a trained source model is available and how we can effectively utilize such a model without source data to solve UDA problems.
