• Abstract summary: We propose a task-expansion-decomposition framework for Cross-Domain Few-Shot Learning. The proposed Self-Taught (ST) approach alleviates the problem of non-target guidance by constructing task-oriented metric spaces. We conduct experiments under the cross-domain setting including 8 target domains: CUB, Cars, Places, Plantae, CropDieases, EuroSAT, ISIC, and ChestX.

• Abstract: The domain shift between the source and target domain is the main challenge in Cross-Domain Few-Shot Learning (CD-FSL). However, the target domain is absolutely unknown during the training on the source domain, which results in lacking directed guidance for target tasks. We observe that since there are similar backgrounds in target domains, it can apply self-labeled samples as prior tasks to transfer knowledge onto target tasks. To this end, we propose a task-expansion-decomposition framework for CD-FSL, called Self-Taught (ST) approach, which alleviates the problem of non-target guidance by constructing task-oriented metric spaces. Specifically, Weakly Supervised Object Localization (WSOL) and self-supervised technologies are employed to enrich task-oriented samples by exchanging and rotating the discriminative regions, which generates a more abundant task set. Then these tasks are decomposed into several tasks to finish the task of few-shot recognition and rotation classification. It helps to transfer the source knowledge onto the target tasks and focus on discriminative regions. We conduct extensive experiments under the cross-domain setting including 8 target domains: CUB, Cars, Places, Plantae, CropDieases, EuroSAT, ISIC, and ChestX. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed ST approach is applicable to various metric-based models, and provides promising improvements in CD-FSL.

  We propose Domain Adaptive Few-Shot Open Set Recognition (DA-FSOS) and introduce a meta-learning-based architecture named DAFOSNET.

  Opinion target extraction (OTE) or aspect extraction (AE) is a fundamental task in opinion mining. Recent work focus on cross-domain OTE, which is typically encountered in real-world scenarios. We propose a new SSL approach that opts for selecting target samples whose model output from a domain-specific teacher and student network disagrees on the unlabelled target data.

  Domain shift is a well known problem where a model trained on a particular domain (source) does not perform well when exposed to samples from a different domain (target) In this work, we address the domain shift problem for the object detection task. Our approach relies on gradually removing the domain shift between the source and the target domains.
