• Abstract summary: We study open-vocabulary domain adaptation (OVDA), a new unsupervised domain adaptation framework. We design a Prompt Ensemble Self-training (PEST) technique that exploits the synergy between vision and language. PEST outperforms the state-of-the-art consistently across 10 image recognition tasks.

• Abstract: Traditional domain adaptation assumes the same vocabulary across source and target domains, which often struggles with limited transfer flexibility and efficiency while handling target domains with different vocabularies. Inspired by recent vision-language models (VLMs) that enable open-vocabulary visual recognition by reasoning on both images and texts, we study open-vocabulary domain adaptation (OVDA), a new unsupervised domain adaptation framework that positions a pre-trained VLM as the source model and transfers it towards arbitrary unlabelled target domains. To this end, we design a Prompt Ensemble Self-training (PEST) technique that exploits the synergy between vision and language to mitigate the domain discrepancies in image and text distributions simultaneously. Specifically, PEST makes use of the complementary property of multiple prompts within and across vision and language modalities, which enables joint exploitation of vision and language information and effective learning of image-text correspondences in the unlabelled target domains. Additionally, PEST captures temporal information via temporal prompt ensemble which helps memorize previously learnt target information. Extensive experiments show that PEST outperforms the state-of-the-art consistently across 10 image recognition tasks.

  We present WIDIn, Wording Images for Domain-Invariant representation, to disentangle discriminative visual representation. We first estimate the language embedding with fine-grained alignment, which can be used to adaptively identify and then remove domain-specific counterpart. We show that WIDIn can be applied to both pretrained vision-language models like CLIP, and separately trained uni-modal models like MoCo and BERT.
