Adversarial Discriminative Domain Adaptation
Adversarial learning methods are a promising approach to training robust deep
networks, and can generate complex samples across diverse domains. They also
can improve recognition despite the presence of domain shift or dataset bias:
several adversarial approaches to unsupervised domain adaptation have recently
been introduced, which reduce the difference between the training and test
domain distributions and thus improve generalization performance. Prior
generative approaches show compelling visualizations, but are not optimal on
discriminative tasks and can be limited to smaller shifts. Prior discriminative
approaches could handle larger domain shifts, but imposed tied weights on the
model and did not exploit a GAN-based loss. We first outline a novel
generalized framework for adversarial adaptation, which subsumes recent
state-of-the-art approaches as special cases, and we use this generalized view
to better relate the prior approaches. We propose a previously unexplored
instance of our general framework which combines discriminative modeling,
untied weight sharing, and a GAN loss, which we call Adversarial Discriminative
Domain Adaptation (ADDA). We show that ADDA is more effective yet considerably
simpler than competing domain-adversarial methods, and demonstrate the promise
of our approach by exceeding state-of-the-art unsupervised adaptation results
on standard cross-domain digit classification tasks and a new more difficult
cross-modality object classification task
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs): Challenges, Solutions, and Future Directions
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) is a novel class of deep generative
models which has recently gained significant attention. GANs learns complex and
high-dimensional distributions implicitly over images, audio, and data.
However, there exists major challenges in training of GANs, i.e., mode
collapse, non-convergence and instability, due to inappropriate design of
network architecture, use of objective function and selection of optimization
algorithm. Recently, to address these challenges, several solutions for better
design and optimization of GANs have been investigated based on techniques of
re-engineered network architectures, new objective functions and alternative
optimization algorithms. To the best of our knowledge, there is no existing
survey that has particularly focused on broad and systematic developments of
these solutions. In this study, we perform a comprehensive survey of the
advancements in GANs design and optimization solutions proposed to handle GANs
challenges. We first identify key research issues within each design and
optimization technique and then propose a new taxonomy to structure solutions
by key research issues. In accordance with the taxonomy, we provide a detailed
discussion on different GANs variants proposed within each solution and their
relationships. Finally, based on the insights gained, we present the promising
research directions in this rapidly growing field.Comment: 42 pages, Figure 13, Table
