• Abstract summary: Source Domain Adaptation (SFDA) setup aims to adapt a source-trained model to the target domain without accessing source data. A novel method that takes full advantage of correlations oftemporal-information to tackle the absence of source data is proposed. Experiments show that PixelL achieves un-of-the-art performance on benchmarks compared to current UDA and SFDA approaches.

• Abstract: Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) of semantic segmentation transfers labeled source knowledge to an unlabeled target domain by relying on accessing both the source and target data. However, the access to source data is often restricted or infeasible in real-world scenarios. Under the source data restrictive circumstances, UDA is less practical. To address this, recent works have explored solutions under the Source-Free Domain Adaptation (SFDA) setup, which aims to adapt a source-trained model to the target domain without accessing source data. Still, existing SFDA approaches use only image-level information for adaptation, making them sub-optimal in video applications. This paper studies SFDA for Video Semantic Segmentation (VSS), where temporal information is leveraged to address video adaptation. Specifically, we propose Spatio-Temporal Pixel-Level (STPL) contrastive learning, a novel method that takes full advantage of spatio-temporal information to tackle the absence of source data better. STPL explicitly learns semantic correlations among pixels in the spatio-temporal space, providing strong self-supervision for adaptation to the unlabeled target domain. Extensive experiments show that STPL achieves state-of-the-art performance on VSS benchmarks compared to current UDA and SFDA approaches. Code is available at: https://github.com/shaoyuanlo/STPL

  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.

  Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) is an effective approach to tackle the issue of domain shift. UDA methods try to align the source and target representations to improve the generalization on the target domain. The Source-Free Adaptation Domain (SFDA) setting aims to alleviate these concerns by adapting a source-trained model for the target domain without requiring access to the source data.

  Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) can tackle the challenge that convolutional neural network-based approaches for semantic segmentation heavily rely on the pixel-level annotated data. We propose a source-free domain adaptation framework for semantic segmentation, namely SFDA, in which only a well-trained source model and an unlabeled target domain dataset are available for adaptation.
