• Abstract summary: Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) aims to mitigate the domain shift issue, where the distribution of training (source) data differs from that of testing (target) data. Many models have been developed to tackle this problem, and recently vision transformers (ViTs) have shown promising results. This paper introduces an efficient model that reduces trainable parameters and allows for adjustable complexity.

• Abstract: Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) aims to mitigate the domain shift issue, where the distribution of training (source) data differs from that of testing (target) data. Many models have been developed to tackle this problem, and recently vision transformers (ViTs) have shown promising results. However, the complexity and large number of trainable parameters of ViTs restrict their deployment in practical applications. This underscores the need for an efficient model that not only reduces trainable parameters but also allows for adjustable complexity based on specific needs while delivering comparable performance. To achieve this, in this paper we introduce an Efficient Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (EUDA) framework. EUDA employs the DINOv2, which is a self-supervised ViT, as a feature extractor followed by a simplified bottleneck of fully connected layers to refine features for enhanced domain adaptation. Additionally, EUDA employs the synergistic domain alignment loss (SDAL), which integrates cross-entropy (CE) and maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) losses, to balance adaptation by minimizing classification errors in the source domain while aligning the source and target domain distributions. The experimental results indicate the effectiveness of EUDA in producing comparable results as compared with other state-of-the-art methods in domain adaptation with significantly fewer trainable parameters, between 42% to 99.7% fewer. This showcases the ability to train the model in a resource-limited environment. The code of the model is available at: https://github.com/A-Abedi/EUDA.

  We show that Source-Free Domain Adaptation (SFDA) generally outperforms Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) in real-world scenarios. SFDA offers advantages in time efficiency, storage requirements, targeted learning objectives, reduced risk of negative transfer, and increased robustness against overfitting. We propose a novel weight estimation method that effectively integrates available source data into multi-SFDA approaches.

  We introduce an unsupervised auxiliary task of learning an implicit underlying surface representation simultaneously on source and target data. As both domains share the same latent representation, the model is forced to accommodate discrepancies between the two sources of data. Our experiments demonstrate that our method achieves a better performance than the current state of the art, both in real-to-real and synthetic-to-real scenarios.

The generated samples can well simulate the data distribution of the target domain and help existing UDA methods transfer from the source domain to the target domain more easily.
