• Authors: Jiabo Huang and Shaogang Gong
• Abstract summary: Generalising deep networks to novel domains without manual labels is challenging to deep learning. Pre-learned knowledge does not transfer well without making strong assumptions about the learned and the novel domains. In this work, we aim to learn a discriminative latent space of the unlabelled target data in a novel domain by knowledge transfer from labelled related domains.

• Abstract: Generalising deep networks to novel domains without manual labels is challenging to deep learning. This problem is intrinsically difficult due to unpredictable changing nature of imagery data distributions in novel domains. Pre-learned knowledge does not transfer well without making strong assumptions about the learned and the novel domains. Different methods have been studied to address the underlying problem based on different assumptions, e.g. from domain adaptation to zero-shot and few-shot learning. In this work, we address this problem by transfer clustering that aims to learn a discriminative latent space of the unlabelled target data in a novel domain by knowledge transfer from labelled related domains. Specifically, we want to leverage relative (pairwise) imagery information, which is freely available and intrinsic to a target domain, to model the target domain image distribution characteristics as well as the prior-knowledge learned from related labelled domains to enable more discriminative clustering of unlabelled target data. Our method mitigates nontransferrable prior-knowledge by self-supervision, benefiting from both transfer and self-supervised learning. Extensive experiments on four datasets for image clustering tasks reveal the superiority of our model over the state-of-the-art transfer clustering techniques. We further demonstrate its competitive transferability on four zero-shot learning benchmarks.

  Few-shot video action recognition is an effective approach to recognizing new categories with only a few labeled examples. Existing methods in video action recognition rely on large labeled datasets from the same domain. We propose a novel cross-domain few-shot video action recognition method that leverages self-supervised learning and curriculum learning.

  Large-scale labeled training datasets have enabled deep neural networks to excel across a wide range of benchmark vision tasks. In many applications, it is prohibitively expensive and time-consuming to obtain large quantities of labeled data. To cope with limited labeled training data, many have attempted to directly apply models trained on a large-scale labeled source domain to another sparsely labeled or unlabeled target domain.
