• Abstract: Cross-domain imitation learning (CDIL) accelerates policy learning by transferring expert knowledge across domains, which is valuable in applications where the collection of expert data is costly. Existing methods are either supervised, relying on proxy tasks and explicit alignment, or unsupervised, aligning distributions without paired data, but often unstable. We introduce the Semi-Supervised CDIL (SS-CDIL) setting and propose the first algorithm for SS-CDIL with theoretical justification. Our method uses only offline data, including a small number of target expert demonstrations and some unlabeled imperfect trajectories. To handle domain discrepancy, we propose a novel cross-domain loss function for learning inter-domain state-action mappings and design an adaptive weight function to balance the source and target knowledge. Experiments on MuJoCo and Robosuite show consistent gains over the baselines, demonstrating that our approach achieves stable and data-efficient policy learning with minimal supervision. Our code is available at~ https://github.com/NYCU-RL-Bandits-Lab/CDIL.

  Test-time domain adaptation aims to adapt the model trained on source domains to unseen target domains using a few unlabeled images. Previous works normally update the whole network naively without explicitly decoupling the knowledge between label and domain. We propose to reduce such learning interference and elevate the domain knowledge learning by only manipulating the BN layer.

We propose a novel cross-domain few-shot video action recognition method that leverages self-supervised learning and curriculum learning.

  Divide and Contrast (DaC) aims to connect the good ends of both worlds while bypassing their limitations. DaC divides the target data into source-like and target-specific samples, where either group of samples is treated with tailored goals. We further align the source-like domain with the target-specific samples using a memory bank-based Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD) loss to reduce the distribution mismatch.

• Keep it Simple: Image Statistics Matching for Domain Adaptation [0.0]
  Domain Adaptation (DA) is a technique to maintain detection accuracy when only unlabeled images are available of the target domain. Recent state-of-the-art methods try to reduce the domain gap using an adversarial training strategy. We propose to align either color histograms or mean and covariance of the source images towards the target domain. In comparison to recent methods, we achieve state-of-the-art performance using a much simpler procedure for the training.
