• Authors: Jungwuk Park, Dong-Jun Han, Soyeong Kim, Jaekyun Moon
• Abstract summary: In domain generalization (DG), the target domain is unknown when the model is being trained. We propose test-time style shifting, which shifts the style of the test sample to the nearest source domain. We also propose style balancing, which provides a great platform for maximizing the advantage of test-time style shifting.

• Abstract: In domain generalization (DG), the target domain is unknown when the model is being trained, and the trained model should successfully work on an arbitrary (and possibly unseen) target domain during inference. This is a difficult problem, and despite active studies in recent years, it remains a great challenge. In this paper, we take a simple yet effective approach to tackle this issue. We propose test-time style shifting, which shifts the style of the test sample (that has a large style gap with the source domains) to the nearest source domain that the model is already familiar with, before making the prediction. This strategy enables the model to handle any target domains with arbitrary style statistics, without additional model update at test-time. Additionally, we propose style balancing, which provides a great platform for maximizing the advantage of test-time style shifting by handling the DG-specific imbalance issues. The proposed ideas are easy to implement and successfully work in conjunction with various other DG schemes. Experimental results on different datasets show the effectiveness of our methods.

  Face Anti-Spoofing (FAS) is pivotal in safeguarding facial recognition systems against presentation attacks. We introduce a novel Test-Time Domain Generalization framework for FAS, which leverages the testing data to boost the model's generalizability. Our method, consisting of Test-Time Style Projection (TTSP) and Diverse Style Shifts Simulation (DSSS), effectively projects the unseen data to the seen domain space.

  Continual Test-Time Adaptation (CTA) is a challenging task that aims to adapt a source pre-trained model to continually changing target domains. We find that a model shows highly biased predictions as it constantly adapts to the chaining distribution of the target data. This paper mitigates this issue to improve performance in the CTA scenario.

  We study a practical problem of Domain Generalization under Category Shift (DGCS) It aims to simultaneously detect unknown-class samples and classify known-class samples in the target domains. Compared to prior DG works, we face two new challenges: 1) how to learn the concept of unknown'' during training with only source known-class samples, and 2) how to adapt the source-trained model to unseen environments.

  Source-free domain adaptation (SFDA) aims to adapt a well-trained source model to an unlabelled target domain without accessing the source dataset. Existing SFDA methods ONLY assess their adapted models on the target training set, neglecting the data from unseen but identically distributed testing sets. We propose a consistency regularization framework to develop a more generalizable SFDA method.

  We introduce an unsupervised auxiliary task of learning an implicit underlying surface representation simultaneously on source and target data. As both domains share the same latent representation, the model is forced to accommodate discrepancies between the two sources of data. Our experiments demonstrate that our method achieves a better performance than the current state of the art, both in real-to-real and synthetic-to-real scenarios.
