• Title: Robust Class-Conditional Distribution Alignment for Partial Domain Adaptation
• Authors: Sandipan Choudhuri, Arunabha Sen
• Abstract summary: Unwanted samples from private source categories in the learning objective of a partial domain adaptation setup can lead to negative transfer and reduce classification performance. Existing methods, such as re-weighting or aggregating target predictions, are vulnerable to this issue. Our proposed approach seeks to overcome these limitations by delving deeper than just the first-order moments to derive distinct and compact categorical distributions.

• Abstract: Unwanted samples from private source categories in the learning objective of a partial domain adaptation setup can lead to negative transfer and reduce classification performance. Existing methods, such as re-weighting or aggregating target predictions, are vulnerable to this issue, especially during initial training stages, and do not adequately address class-level feature alignment. Our proposed approach seeks to overcome these limitations by delving deeper than just the first-order moments to derive distinct and compact categorical distributions. We employ objectives that optimize the intra and inter-class distributions in a domain-invariant fashion and design a robust pseudo-labeling for efficient target supervision. Our approach incorporates a complement entropy objective module to reduce classification uncertainty and flatten incorrect category predictions. The experimental findings and ablation analysis of the proposed modules demonstrate the superior performance of our proposed model compared to benchmarks.

  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.

  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.

  An adversarial training solution Adversarial Logits Pairing (ALP) tends to rely on fewer high-contribution features compared with vulnerable ones. Motivated by these observations, we design an Adaptive Adversarial Logits Pairing (AALP) solution by modifying the training process and training target of ALP. AALP consists of an adaptive feature optimization module with Guided Dropout to systematically pursue fewer high-contribution features.
