• Abstract summary: Domain adaptation is essential for activity recognition to ensure accurate and robust performance across diverse environments. In this work, we focus on FewShot Domain Adaptation for Activity Recognition (FSDA-AR), which leverages a very small amount of labeled target videos. We propose a new FSDA-AR using five established datasets considering the adaptation on more diverse and challenging domains.

• Abstract: Domain adaptation is essential for activity recognition to ensure accurate and robust performance across diverse environments, sensor types, and data sources. Unsupervised domain adaptation methods have been extensively studied, yet, they require large-scale unlabeled data from the target domain. In this work, we focus on Few-Shot Domain Adaptation for Activity Recognition (FSDA-AR), which leverages a very small amount of labeled target videos to achieve effective adaptation. This approach is appealing for applications because it only needs a few or even one labeled example per class in the target domain, ideal for recognizing rare but critical activities. However, the existing FSDA-AR works mostly focus on the domain adaptation on sports videos, where the domain diversity is limited. We propose a new FSDA-AR benchmark using five established datasets considering the adaptation on more diverse and challenging domains. Our results demonstrate that FSDA-AR performs comparably to unsupervised domain adaptation with significantly fewer labeled target domain samples. We further propose a novel approach, RelaMiX, to better leverage the few labeled target domain samples as knowledge guidance. RelaMiX encompasses a temporal relational attention network with relation dropout, alongside a cross-domain information alignment mechanism. Furthermore, it integrates a mechanism for mixing features within a latent space by using the few-shot target domain samples. The proposed RelaMiX solution achieves state-of-the-art performance on all datasets within the FSDA-AR benchmark. To encourage future research of few-shot domain adaptation for activity recognition, our code will be publicly available at https://github.com/KPeng9510/RelaMiX.

  Active Domain Adaptation (ADA) aims to maximally boost model adaptation in a new target domain by actively selecting a limited number of target data to annotate. This setting neglects the more practical scenario where training data are collected from multiple sources. This motivates us to target a new and challenging setting of knowledge transfer that extends ADA from a single source domain to multiple source domains.

  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.

  Partial domain adaptation aims to adapt knowledge from a larger and more diverse source domain to a smaller target domain with less number of classes. Recent practice on domain adaptation manages to extract effective features by incorporating the pseudo labels for the target domain. It is essential to align target data with only a small set of source data.
