• Abstract: Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) is one of the key technologies to solve a problem where it is hard to obtain ground truth labels needed for supervised learning. In general, UDA assumes that all samples from source and target domains are available during the training process. However, this is not a realistic assumption under applications where data privacy issues are concerned. To overcome this limitation, UDA without source data, referred to source-free unsupervised domain adaptation (SFUDA) has been recently proposed. Here, we propose a SFUDA method for medical image segmentation. In addition to the entropy minimization method, which is commonly used in UDA, we introduce a loss function for avoiding feature norms in the target domain small and a prior to preserve shape constraints of the target organ. We conduct experiments using datasets including multiple types of source-target domain combinations in order to show the versatility and robustness of our method. We confirm that our method outperforms the state-of-the-art in all datasets.

  Unlabelled Domain Adaptation (UDA) is a learning technique that transfers knowledge learned in the source domain from labelled data to the target domain with only unlabelled data. In this study, we propose a two-stage training stage for robust domain adaptation. We propose a novel robust pseudo-label and pseudo-boundary (PLPB) method, which effectively utilizes unlabeled target data to generate pseudo labels and pseudo boundaries.

  We present a two-stage source-free domain adaptation (SFDA) framework for medical image segmentation. In the prototype-anchored feature alignment stage, we first utilize the weights of the pre-trained pixel-wise classifier as source prototypes. Then, we introduce the bi-directional transport to align the target features with class prototypes by minimizing its expected cost.

  Distribution shift between train (source) and test (target) datasets is a common problem encountered in machine learning applications.

Outliers that exist in either source or target datasets can introduce additional challenges when using UDA in practice.

  Supervised approaches have led to great success with the advance of deep learning, but they rely on large quantities of ground-truth depth annotations. Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) transfers knowledge from labeled source data to unlabeled target data, so as to relax the constraint of supervised learning. We propose a novel UDA method for MDE, referred to as Learning Feature Decomposition for Adaptation (LFDA), which learns to decompose the feature space into content and style components.

  Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) aims to transfer knowledge learned from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled and unseen target domain.

We propose to adapt an off-the-shelf" segmentation model pre-trained in the source domain to the target domain.
