• Abstract summary: We propose a new technique called CHATTY: Coupled Holistic Adversarial Transport Terms with Yield for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation. Adversarial training is commonly used for learning domain-invariant representations by reversing the gradients from a domain discriminator head to train the feature extractor layers of a neural network. We introduce a sub-network which displaces the outputs of the source and target domain samples in a learnable manner.

• Abstract: We propose a new technique called CHATTY: Coupled Holistic Adversarial Transport Terms with Yield for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation. Adversarial training is commonly used for learning domain-invariant representations by reversing the gradients from a domain discriminator head to train the feature extractor layers of a neural network. We propose significant modifications to the adversarial head, its training objective, and the classifier head. With the aim of reducing class confusion, we introduce a sub-network which displaces the classifier outputs of the source and target domain samples in a learnable manner. We control this movement using a novel transport loss that spreads class clusters away from each other and makes it easier for the classifier to find the decision boundaries for both the source and target domains. The results of adding this new loss to a careful selection of previously proposed losses leads to improvement in UDA results compared to the previous state-of-the-art methods on benchmark datasets. We show the importance of the proposed loss term using ablation studies and visualization of the movement of target domain sample in representation space.

  We design new training objective losses for cases when labeled target data behave as source samples or as real target samples. To support our approach, we consider a complementary method that mixes source and labeled target data, then applies the same adaptation process. We illustrate our findings through extensive experiments on the benchmarks GTA5, SYNTHIA, and Cityscapes.

  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.

• Labeling Where Adapting Fails: Cross-Domain Semantic Segmentation with Point Supervision via Active Selection [81.703478548177]
  Training models dedicated to semantic segmentation require a large amount of pixel-wise annotated data. Unsupervised domain adaptation approaches aim at aligning the feature distributions between the labeled source and the unlabeled target data. Previous works attempted to include human interactions in this process under the form of sparse single-pixel annotations in the target data. We propose a new domain adaptation framework for semantic segmentation with annotated points via active selection.

  We propose an instance affinity based criterion for source to target transfer during adaptation, called ILA-DA. We first propose a reliable and efficient method to extract similar and dissimilar samples across source and target, and utilize a multi-sample contrastive loss to drive the domain alignment process. We verify the effectiveness of ILA-DA by observing consistent improvements in accuracy over popular domain adaptation approaches on a variety of benchmark datasets.

  Existing techniques to adapt semantic segmentation networks across the source and target domains within deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) do not consider an inter-class variation within the target domain itself or estimated category. We introduce a learnable clustering module, and a novel domain adaptation framework called cross-domain grouping and alignment. Our method consistently boosts the adaptation performance in semantic segmentation, outperforming the state-of-the-arts on various domain adaptation settings.
