• Abstract summary: Few-shot domain adaptive object detection (FSDAOD) addresses the challenge of adapting object detectors to target domains with limited labeled data. Medical datasets exhibit high class imbalance and background similarity, leading to increased false positives and lower mean Average Precision (map) in target domains. Our contributions include a domain adaptive class balancing strategy for few-shot scenarios, multi-layer instance-level inter and intra-domain alignment, and an instance-level classification loss.

• Abstract: In recent years, numerous domain adaptive strategies have been proposed to help deep learning models overcome the challenges posed by domain shift. However, even unsupervised domain adaptive strategies still require a large amount of target data. Medical imaging datasets are often characterized by class imbalance and scarcity of labeled and unlabeled data. Few-shot domain adaptive object detection (FSDAOD) addresses the challenge of adapting object detectors to target domains with limited labeled data. Existing works struggle with randomly selected target domain images that may not accurately represent the real population, resulting in overfitting to small validation sets and poor generalization to larger test sets. Medical datasets exhibit high class imbalance and background similarity, leading to increased false positives and lower mean Average Precision (map) in target domains. To overcome these challenges, we propose a novel FSDAOD strategy for microscopic imaging. Our contributions include a domain adaptive class balancing strategy for few-shot scenarios, multi-layer instance-level inter and intra-domain alignment to enhance similarity between class instances regardless of domain, and an instance-level classification loss applied in the middle layers of the object detector to enforce feature retention necessary for correct classification across domains. Extensive experimental results with competitive baselines demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, achieving state-of-the-art results on two public microscopic datasets.

  Domain shift is a common problem in clinical applications, where the training images (source domain) and the test images (target domain) are under different distributions. We propose a novel method for Few-Shot Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (FSUDA), where only a limited number of unlabeled target domain samples are available for training.

  Large-scale labeled training datasets have enabled deep neural networks to excel across a wide range of benchmark vision tasks. In many applications, it is prohibitively expensive and time-consuming to obtain large quantities of labeled data. To cope with limited labeled training data, many have attempted to directly apply models trained on a large-scale labeled source domain to another sparsely labeled or unlabeled target domain.
