Recent Advances in Transfer Learning for Cross-Dataset Visual Recognition: A Problem-Oriented Perspective
This paper takes a problem-oriented perspective and presents a comprehensive
review of transfer learning methods, both shallow and deep, for cross-dataset
visual recognition. Specifically, it categorises the cross-dataset recognition
into seventeen problems based on a set of carefully chosen data and label
attributes. Such a problem-oriented taxonomy has allowed us to examine how
different transfer learning approaches tackle each problem and how well each
problem has been researched to date. The comprehensive problem-oriented review
of the advances in transfer learning with respect to the problem has not only
revealed the challenges in transfer learning for visual recognition, but also
the problems (e.g. eight of the seventeen problems) that have been scarcely
studied. This survey not only presents an up-to-date technical review for
researchers, but also a systematic approach and a reference for a machine
learning practitioner to categorise a real problem and to look up for a
possible solution accordingly
Multi-Adversarial Domain Adaptation
Recent advances in deep domain adaptation reveal that adversarial learning
can be embedded into deep networks to learn transferable features that reduce
distribution discrepancy between the source and target domains. Existing domain
adversarial adaptation methods based on single domain discriminator only align
the source and target data distributions without exploiting the complex
multimode structures. In this paper, we present a multi-adversarial domain
adaptation (MADA) approach, which captures multimode structures to enable
fine-grained alignment of different data distributions based on multiple domain
discriminators. The adaptation can be achieved by stochastic gradient descent
with the gradients computed by back-propagation in linear-time. Empirical
evidence demonstrates that the proposed model outperforms state of the art
methods on standard domain adaptation datasets.Comment: AAAI 2018 Oral. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Joint Geometrical and Statistical Alignment for Visual Domain Adaptation
This paper presents a novel unsupervised domain adaptation method for
cross-domain visual recognition. We propose a unified framework that reduces
the shift between domains both statistically and geometrically, referred to as
Joint Geometrical and Statistical Alignment (JGSA). Specifically, we learn two
coupled projections that project the source domain and target domain data into
low dimensional subspaces where the geometrical shift and distribution shift
are reduced simultaneously. The objective function can be solved efficiently in
a closed form. Extensive experiments have verified that the proposed method
significantly outperforms several state-of-the-art domain adaptation methods on
a synthetic dataset and three different real world cross-domain visual
recognition tasks
Deep Hashing Network for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation
In recent years, deep neural networks have emerged as a dominant machine
learning tool for a wide variety of application domains. However, training a
deep neural network requires a large amount of labeled data, which is an
expensive process in terms of time, labor and human expertise. Domain
adaptation or transfer learning algorithms address this challenge by leveraging
labeled data in a different, but related source domain, to develop a model for
the target domain. Further, the explosive growth of digital data has posed a
fundamental challenge concerning its storage and retrieval. Due to its storage
and retrieval efficiency, recent years have witnessed a wide application of
hashing in a variety of computer vision applications. In this paper, we first
introduce a new dataset, Office-Home, to evaluate domain adaptation algorithms.
The dataset contains images of a variety of everyday objects from multiple
domains. We then propose a novel deep learning framework that can exploit
labeled source data and unlabeled target data to learn informative hash codes,
to accurately classify unseen target data. To the best of our knowledge, this
is the first research effort to exploit the feature learning capabilities of
deep neural networks to learn representative hash codes to address the domain
adaptation problem. Our extensive empirical studies on multiple transfer tasks
corroborate the usefulness of the framework in learning efficient hash codes
which outperform existing competitive baselines for unsupervised domain
adaptation.Comment: CVPR 201
A review of domain adaptation without target labels
Domain adaptation has become a prominent problem setting in machine learning
and related fields. This review asks the question: how can a classifier learn
from a source domain and generalize to a target domain? We present a
categorization of approaches, divided into, what we refer to as, sample-based,
feature-based and inference-based methods. Sample-based methods focus on
weighting individual observations during training based on their importance to
the target domain. Feature-based methods revolve around on mapping, projecting
and representing features such that a source classifier performs well on the
target domain and inference-based methods incorporate adaptation into the
parameter estimation procedure, for instance through constraints on the
optimization procedure. Additionally, we review a number of conditions that
allow for formulating bounds on the cross-domain generalization error. Our
categorization highlights recurring ideas and raises questions important to
further research.Comment: 20 pages, 5 figure
