Partial Transfer Learning with Selective Adversarial Networks
Adversarial learning has been successfully embedded into deep networks to
learn transferable features, which reduce distribution discrepancy between the
source and target domains. Existing domain adversarial networks assume fully
shared label space across domains. In the presence of big data, there is strong
motivation of transferring both classification and representation models from
existing big domains to unknown small domains. This paper introduces partial
transfer learning, which relaxes the shared label space assumption to that the
target label space is only a subspace of the source label space. Previous
methods typically match the whole source domain to the target domain, which are
prone to negative transfer for the partial transfer problem. We present
Selective Adversarial Network (SAN), which simultaneously circumvents negative
transfer by selecting out the outlier source classes and promotes positive
transfer by maximally matching the data distributions in the shared label
space. Experiments demonstrate that our models exceed state-of-the-art results
for partial transfer learning tasks on several benchmark datasets
