• Title: Unsupervised Domain Adaptation in the Absence of Source Data
• Authors: Roshni Sahoo, Divya Shanmugam, John Guttag
• Abstract summary: We propose an unsupervised method for adapting a source classifier to a target domain that varies from the source domain along natural axes. We validate our method in scenarios where the distribution shift involves brightness, contrast, and rotation and show that it outperforms fine-tuning baselines in scenarios with limited labeled data.

• Abstract: Current unsupervised domain adaptation methods can address many types of distribution shift, but they assume data from the source domain is freely available. As the use of pre-trained models becomes more prevalent, it is reasonable to assume that source data is unavailable. We propose an unsupervised method for adapting a source classifier to a target domain that varies from the source domain along natural axes, such as brightness and contrast. Our method only requires access to unlabeled target instances and the source classifier. We validate our method in scenarios where the distribution shift involves brightness, contrast, and rotation and show that it outperforms fine-tuning baselines in scenarios with limited labeled data.

  Domain Adaptation aims to transfer the knowledge learned from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain whose data distributions are different. Recently, Source-Free Domain Adaptation (SFDA) has drawn much attention, which tries to tackle domain adaptation problem without using source data. In this work, we propose a novel framework called SFDA-DE to address SFDA task via source Distribution Estimation.

  Domain adaptation typically requires to access source domain data to utilize their distribution information for domain alignment with the target data. In many real-world scenarios, the source data may not be accessible during the model adaptation in the target domain due to privacy issue. We present a novel denoised pseudo-labeling method for this problem, which effectively makes use of the source model and unlabeled target data.

  Source-free domain adaptation aims to solve the problem by performing domain adaptation without accessing the source data.

Our method outperforms the recent semi-supervised baselines and the unsupervised variant achieves competitive performance.

  Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) aims to learn a predictor model for an unlabeled domain by transferring knowledge from a separate labeled source domain. We propose a novel and efficient algorithm which automatically combines the source models with suitable weights in such a way that it performs at least as good as the best source model.

  Unsupervised domain adaptation methods solve the adaptation problem for an unlabeled target set, assuming that the source dataset is available with all labels. This paper proposes a domain adaptation technique that does not need any source data. Instead of the source data, we are only provided with a classifier that is trained on the source data.
