• Abstract: This paper studies a new, practical but challenging problem, called Class-Incremental Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (CI-UDA), where the labeled source domain contains all classes, but the classes in the unlabeled target domain increase sequentially. This problem is challenging due to two difficulties. First, source and target label sets are inconsistent at each time step, which makes it difficult to conduct accurate domain alignment. Second, previous target classes are unavailable in the current step, resulting in the forgetting of previous knowledge. To address this problem, we propose a novel Prototype-guided Continual Adaptation (ProCA) method, consisting of two solution strategies. 1) Label prototype identification: we identify target label prototypes by detecting shared classes with cumulative prediction probabilities of target samples. 2) Prototype-based alignment and replay: based on the identified label prototypes, we align both domains and enforce the model to retain previous knowledge. With these two strategies, ProCA is able to adapt the source model to a class-incremental unlabeled target domain effectively. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of ProCA in resolving CI-UDA. The source code is available at https://github.com/Hongbin98/ProCA.git

  We propose a Knowledge-guided Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (KUDA) setting where prior knowledge about the target class distribution is available. In particular, we consider two specific types of prior knowledge about the class distribution in the target domain: Unary Bound and Binary Relationship. We propose a rectification module that uses such prior knowledge to refine model generated pseudo labels.

  Domain adaptation aims to leverage a labeled source domain to learn a classifier for the unlabeled target domain with a different distribution. We propose a simple yet efficient domain adaptation method, i.e. Cycle Label-Consistent Network (CLCN), by exploiting the cycle consistency of classification label. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on MNIST-USPS-SVHN, Office-31, Office-Home and Image CLEF-DA benchmarks.

  Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) aims to generalize the knowledge learned from a well-labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. We propose a cross-domain discrepancy minimization (CGDM) method which explicitly minimizes the discrepancy of gradients generated by source samples and target samples. In order to compute the gradient signal of target samples, we further obtain target pseudo labels through a clustering-based self-supervised learning.

  This paper studies how much it can help address domain shifts if we further have a few target samples labeled. To explore the full potential of landmarks, we incorporate a prototypical alignment (PA) module which calculates a target prototype for each class from the landmarks. Specifically, we severely perturb the labeled images, making PA non-trivial to achieve and thus promoting model generalizability.
