• Title: Contrastive Domain Adaptation
• Authors: Mamatha Thota and Georgios Leontidis
• Abstract summary: We propose to extend contrastive learning to a new domain adaptation setting. Contrastive learning learns by comparing and contrasting positive and negative pairs of samples in an unsupervised setting. We have developed a variation of a recently proposed contrastive learning framework that helps tackle the domain adaptation problem.

• Abstract: Recently, contrastive self-supervised learning has become a key component for learning visual representations across many computer vision tasks and benchmarks. However, contrastive learning in the context of domain adaptation remains largely underexplored. In this paper, we propose to extend contrastive learning to a new domain adaptation setting, a particular situation occurring where the similarity is learned and deployed on samples following different probability distributions without access to labels. Contrastive learning learns by comparing and contrasting positive and negative pairs of samples in an unsupervised setting without access to source and target labels. We have developed a variation of a recently proposed contrastive learning framework that helps tackle the domain adaptation problem, further identifying and removing possible negatives similar to the anchor to mitigate the effects of false negatives. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed method adapts well, and improves the performance on the downstream domain adaptation task.

  We conduct theoretical analysis and find they have overlooked the fundamental issues: false negatives and class imbalance inherent in the InfoNCE loss-based framework. We introduce a straightforward modification grounded in the SimCLR framework, universally to models engaged in the instance discrimination task. We perform semi-supervised consistency classification and enhance the representative ability of minority classes.

  We introduce Contrast and Mix (CoMix), a new contrastive learning framework that aims to learn discriminative invariant feature representations for unsupervised video domain adaptation. First, we utilize temporal contrastive learning to bridge the domain gap by maximizing the similarity between encoded representations of an unlabeled video at two different speeds. Second, we propose a novel extension to the temporal contrastive loss by using background mixing that allows additional positives per anchor, thus adapting contrastive learning to leverage action semantics shared across both domains.

  Several multimodal representation learning approaches have been proposed that jointly represent image and text. These approaches achieve superior performance by capturing high-level semantic information from large-scale multimodal pretraining. We propose unbiased Dense Contrastive Visual-Linguistic Pretraining to replace the region regression and classification with cross-modality region contrastive learning.

  unsupervised, "contrastive" learning algorithms in vision have been shown to learn representations that perform remarkably well on transfer tasks. We show that this family of algorithms maximizes a lower bound on the mutual information between two or more "views" of an image. We find that the choice of negative samples and views are critical to the success of these algorithms.
