• Abstract summary: Domain gap between synthetic and real data in visual regression is bridged in this paper via global feature alignment and local refinement. Our method incorporates an explicit self-supervised manifold regularization, revealing consistent cumulative target dependency across domains. Learning unified implicit neural functions to estimate relative direction and distance of targets to their nearest class bins aims to refine target classification predictions.

• Abstract: Domain gap between synthetic and real data in visual regression (e.g. 6D pose estimation) is bridged in this paper via global feature alignment and local refinement on the coarse classification of discretized anchor classes in target space, which imposes a piece-wise target manifold regularization into domain-invariant representation learning. Specifically, our method incorporates an explicit self-supervised manifold regularization, revealing consistent cumulative target dependency across domains, to a self-training scheme (e.g. the popular Self-Paced Self-Training) to encourage more discriminative transferable representations of regression tasks. Moreover, learning unified implicit neural functions to estimate relative direction and distance of targets to their nearest class bins aims to refine target classification predictions, which can gain robust performance against inconsistent feature scaling sensitive to UDA regressors. Experiment results on three public benchmarks of the challenging 6D pose estimation task can verify the effectiveness of our method, consistently achieving superior performance to the state-of-the-art for UDA on 6D pose estimation.

  ReID models struggle in learning domain-invariant representation solely through training on an instance classification objective. We introduce a method that guides model learning of the primary ReID instance classification objective by a concurrent auxiliary learning objective on weakly labeled pedestrian saliency detection. Our model can be extended with the recent test-time diagram to form the PAOA+, which performs on-the-fly optimization against the auxiliary objective.

  We propose a novel domain generalization technique, referred to as Randomized Adversarial Style Perturbation (RASP) The proposed algorithm perturbs the style of a feature in an adversarial direction towards a randomly selected class, and makes the model learn against being misled by the unexpected styles observed in unseen target domains. We evaluate the proposed algorithm via extensive experiments on various benchmarks and show that our approach improves domain generalization performance, especially in large-scale benchmarks.

  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.

Previous approaches to UDA-OD based on self-training have been effective in overcoming changes in the general appearance of images. We propose a framework for explicitly addressing class distribution shift to improve pseudo-label reliability in self-training.

  Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) improves classification performance on an unlabeled target domain by leveraging data from a fully labeled source domain. We propose a model-agnostic two-stage learning framework, which greatly reduces flawed model predictions using soft pseudo-label strategy. At the second stage, we propose a curriculum learning strategy to adaptively control the weighting between losses from the two domains.

  Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) has achieved unprecedented success in improving the cross-domain robustness of object detection models.

We propose a Self-Guided Adaptation (SGA) model, target at aligning feature representation and transferring object detection models across domains.
