• Title: Cross-domain Open-world Discovery
• Authors: Shuo Wen, Maria Brbic,
• Abstract summary: We present CROW, a prototype-based approach that introduces a cluster-then-match strategy enabled by a well-structured representation space of foundation models. In this way, CROW discovers novel classes by robustly matching clusters with previously seen classes, followed by fine-tuning the representation space. CROW outperforms alternative baselines, achieving an 8% average performance improvement across 75 experimental settings.

• Abstract: In many real-world applications, test data may commonly exhibit categorical shifts, characterized by the emergence of novel classes, as well as distribution shifts arising from feature distributions different from the ones the model was trained on. However, existing methods either discover novel classes in the open-world setting or assume domain shifts without the ability to discover novel classes. In this work, we consider a cross-domain open-world discovery setting, where the goal is to assign samples to seen classes and discover unseen classes under a domain shift. To address this challenging problem, we present CROW, a prototype-based approach that introduces a cluster-then-match strategy enabled by a well-structured representation space of foundation models. In this way, CROW discovers novel classes by robustly matching clusters with previously seen classes, followed by fine-tuning the representation space using an objective designed for cross-domain open-world discovery. Extensive experimental results on image classification benchmark datasets demonstrate that CROW outperforms alternative baselines, achieving an 8% average performance improvement across 75 experimental settings.

Second, we design a self-supervised metric learning to generate more reliable cluster assignment.

  Single-source open-domain generalization (SS-ODG) addresses the challenge of labeled source domains with supervision during training and unlabeled novel target domains during testing. We propose a novel framework called SODG-Net that simultaneously synthesizes novel domains and generates pseudo-open samples. Our approach enhances generalization by diversifying the styles of known class samples using a novel metric criterion.

  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 solve the domain adaptation problem by transferring the knowledge learned from a pre-trained source model to an unseen target domain. Most existing methods assign pseudo-labels to the target data by generating feature prototypes. In this paper, a novel framework named PCSR is proposed to tackle SFDA via a novel intra-class Polycentric Clustering and Structural Regularization strategy.
