• Abstract summary: We address a novel cross-domain few-shot learning task with multimodal input and unlabeled target data for egocentric action recognition. This paper simultaneously tackles two critical challenges associated with egocentric action recognition. First, we propose the incorporation of multimodal distillation into the student RGB model using teacher models. Second, we introduce ensemble masked inference, a technique that reduces the number of input tokens through masking.

• Abstract: We address a novel cross-domain few-shot learning task (CD-FSL) with multimodal input and unlabeled target data for egocentric action recognition. This paper simultaneously tackles two critical challenges associated with egocentric action recognition in CD-FSL settings: (1) the extreme domain gap in egocentric videos (e.g., daily life vs. industrial domain) and (2) the computational cost for real-world applications. We propose MM-CDFSL, a domain-adaptive and computationally efficient approach designed to enhance adaptability to the target domain and improve inference cost. To address the first challenge, we propose the incorporation of multimodal distillation into the student RGB model using teacher models. Each teacher model is trained independently on source and target data for its respective modality. Leveraging only unlabeled target data during multimodal distillation enhances the student model's adaptability to the target domain. We further introduce ensemble masked inference, a technique that reduces the number of input tokens through masking. In this approach, ensemble prediction mitigates the performance degradation caused by masking, effectively addressing the second issue. Our approach outperformed the state-of-the-art CD-FSL approaches with a substantial margin on multiple egocentric datasets, improving by an average of 6.12/6.10 points for 1-shot/5-shot settings while achieving $2.2$ times faster inference speed.

  Model inversion attacks (MIAs) aim to reconstruct private images from a target classifier's training set, thereby raising privacy concerns in AI applications. Previous GAN-based MIAs tend to suffer from inferior generative fidelity due to GAN's inherent flaws and biased optimization within latent space. We propose Diffusion-based Model Inversion (Diff-MI) attacks to alleviate these issues.

  Cross-Domain Few-Shot Learning methods require access to source domain data to train a model in the pre-training phase. Due to increasing concerns about data privacy and the desire to reduce data transmission and training costs, it is necessary to develop a CDFSL solution without accessing source data. This paper proposes an Enhanced Information Maximization with Distance-Aware Contrastive Learning method to address these challenges.

• FIXED: Frustratingly Easy Domain Generalization with Mixup [53.782029033068675]
  Domain generalization (DG) aims to learn a generalizable model from multiple training domains such that it can perform well on unseen target domains. A popular strategy is to augment training data to benefit generalization through methods such as Mixupcitezhang 2018mixup. We propose a simple yet effective enhancement for Mixup-based DG, namely domain-invariant Feature mIXup (FIX) Our approach significantly outperforms nine state-of-the-art related methods, beating the best performing baseline by 6.5% on average in terms of test accuracy.
