• Abstract: The importance of building semantic parsers which can be applied to new domains and generate programs unseen at training has long been acknowledged, and datasets testing out-of-domain performance are becoming increasingly available. However, little or no attention has been devoted to learning algorithms or objectives which promote domain generalization, with virtually all existing approaches relying on standard supervised learning. In this work, we use a meta-learning framework which targets zero-shot domain generalization for semantic parsing. We apply a model-agnostic training algorithm that simulates zero-shot parsing by constructing virtual train and test sets from disjoint domains. The learning objective capitalizes on the intuition that gradient steps that improve source-domain performance should also improve target-domain performance, thus encouraging a parser to generalize to unseen target domains. Experimental results on the (English) Spider and Chinese Spider datasets show that the meta-learning objective significantly boosts the performance of a baseline parser.

  Unsupervised domain adaptive segmentation aims to improve the segmentation accuracy of models on target domains without relying on labeled data from those domains. It seeks to align the feature representations of the source domain (where labeled data is available) and the target domain (where only unlabeled data is present)

  Single Domain Generalization tackles the problem of training a model on a single source domain so that it generalizes to any unseen target domain. We propose to leverage a pre-trained vision-language model to introduce semantic domain concepts via textual prompts. We achieve this via a semantic augmentation strategy acting on the features extracted by the detector backbone, as well as a text-based classification loss.

  We propose a principled meta-learning based approach to OCDA for semantic segmentation. We cluster target domain into multiple sub-target domains by image styles, extracted in an unsupervised manner. A meta-learner is thereafter deployed to learn to fuse sub-target domain-specific predictions, conditioned upon the style code. We learn to online update the model by model-agnostic meta-learning (MAML) algorithm, thus to further improve generalization.

• Domain Adaptation for Semantic Parsing [68.81787666086554]
  We propose a novel semantic for domain adaptation, where we have much fewer annotated data in the target domain compared to the source domain. Our semantic benefits from a two-stage coarse-to-fine framework, thus can provide different and accurate treatments for the two stages. Experiments on a benchmark dataset show that our method consistently outperforms several popular domain adaptation strategies.
