• Abstract summary: Adapting machine learning models to new domains without labeled data is a critical challenge in applications like medical imaging, autonomous driving, and remote sensing. This task, known as Source-Free Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (SFUDA), involves adapting a pre-trained model to a target domain using only unlabeled target data. Existing SFUDA methods often rely on single-model architectures, struggling with uncertainty and variability in the target domain. We propose DRIVE, a novel SFUDA framework leveraging a dual-model architecture. The two models, with identical weights, work in parallel to capture diverse target domain characteristics.

• Abstract: Adapting machine learning models to new domains without labeled data, especially when source data is inaccessible, is a critical challenge in applications like medical imaging, autonomous driving, and remote sensing. This task, known as Source-Free Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (SFUDA), involves adapting a pre-trained model to a target domain using only unlabeled target data, which can lead to issues such as overfitting, underfitting, and poor generalization due to domain discrepancies and noise. Existing SFUDA methods often rely on single-model architectures, struggling with uncertainty and variability in the target domain. To address these challenges, we propose DRIVE (Dual-Robustness through Information Variability and Entropy), a novel SFUDA framework leveraging a dual-model architecture. The two models, initialized with identical weights, work in parallel to capture diverse target domain characteristics. One model is exposed to perturbations via projection gradient descent (PGD) guided by mutual information, focusing on high-uncertainty regions. We also introduce an entropy-aware pseudo-labeling strategy that adjusts label weights based on prediction uncertainty, ensuring the model focuses on reliable data while avoiding noisy regions. The adaptation process has two stages: the first aligns the models on stable features using a mutual information consistency loss, and the second dynamically adjusts the perturbation level based on the loss from the first stage, encouraging the model to explore a broader range of the target domain while preserving existing performance. This enhances generalization capabilities and robustness against interference. Evaluations on standard SFUDA benchmarks show that DRIVE consistently outperforms previous methods, delivering improved adaptation accuracy and stability across complex target domains.

  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.

  Face anti-spoofing approaches based on unsupervised domain adaption (UDA) have drawn growing attention due to promising performances for target scenarios. Most existing UDA FAS methods typically fit the trained models to the target domain via aligning the distribution of semantic high-level features. We propose a novel perspective of UDA FAS that directly fits the target data to the models, stylizes the target data to the source-domain style via image translation, and further feeds the stylized data into the well-trained source model for classification.
