Many text classification tasks are domain-dependent, and various domain adaptation approaches have been proposed to predict unlabeled data in a new domain. Domain-adversarial neural networks (DANN) and their variants have been used widely recently and have achieved promising results for this problem. However, most of these approaches assume that the label proportions of the source and target domains are similar, which rarely holds in most real-world scenarios. Sometimes the label shift can be large and the DANN fails to learn domain-invariant features. In this study, we focus on unsupervised domain adaptation of text classification with label shift and introduce a domain adversarial network with label proportions estimation (DAN-LPE) framework. The DAN-LPE simultaneously trains a domain adversarial net and processes label proportions estimation by the confusion of the source domain and the predictions of the target domain. Experiments show the DAN-LPE achieves a good estimate of the target label distributions and reduces the label shift to improve the classification performance.

Domain adaptation is a potential method to train a powerful deep neural network, which can handle the absence of labeled data. More precisely, domain adaptation solving the limitation called dataset bias or domain shift when the training dataset and testing dataset are extremely different. Adversarial adaptation method becoming popular among other domain adaptation methods. Relies on the idea of GAN, adversarial domain adaptation tries to minimize the distribution between training and testing datasets base on the adversarial object. However, some conventional adversarial domain adaptation meth…

Adversarial learning has been embedded into deep networks to learn disentangled and transferable representations for domain adaptation. Existing adversarial domain adaptation methods may not effectively align different domains of multimodal distributions native in classification problems. In this paper, we present conditional adversarial domain adaptation, a principled framework that conditions the adversarial adaptation models on discriminative information conveyed in the classifier predictions. Conditional domain adversarial networks (CDANs) are designed with two novel conditioning strategie…

Breakthroughs in unsupervised domain adaptation (uDA) can help in adapting models from a label-rich source domain to unlabeled target domains. Despite these advancements, there is a lack of research on how uDA algorithms, particularly those based on adversarial learning, can work in distributed settings. In real-world applications, target domains are often distributed across thousands of devices, and existing adversarial uDA algorithms -- which are centralized in nature -- cannot be applied in these settings. To solve this important problem, we introduce FRuDA: an end-to-end framework for dist…

The recent advances in deep transfer learning reveal that adversarial learning can be embedded into deep networks to learn more transferable features to reduce the distribution discrepancy between two domains. Existing adversarial domain adaptation methods either learn a single domain discriminator to align the global source and target distributions or pay attention to align subdomains based on multiple discriminators. However, in real applications, the marginal (global) and conditional (local) distributions between domains are often contributing differently to the adaptation. There is current…
Open set domain adaptation refers to the scenario that the target domain contains categories that do not exist in the source domain. It is a more common situation in the reality compared with the typical closed set domain adaptation where the source domain and the target domain contain the same categories. The main difficulty of open set domain adaptation is that we need to distinguish which target data belongs to the unknown classes when machine learning models only have concepts about what they know. In this paper, we propose an "against adversarial learning" method that can distinguish unkn…
Domain adaptation refers to the learning scenario that a model learned from the source data is applied on the target data which have the same categories but different distribution. While it has been widely applied, the distribution discrepancy between source data and target data can substantially affect the adaptation performance. The problem has been recently addressed by employing adversarial learning and distinctive adaptation performance has been reported. In this paper, a deep adversarial domain adaptation model based on a multi-layer joint kernelized distance metric is proposed. By utili…
Given labeled instances on a source domain and unlabeled ones on a target domain, unsupervised domain adaptation aims to learn a task classifier that can well classify target instances. Recent advances rely on domain-adversarial training of deep networks to learn domain-invariant features. However, due to an issue of mode collapse induced by the separate design of task and domain classifiers, these methods are limited in aligning the joint distributions of feature and category across domains. To overcome it, we propose a novel adversarial learning method termed Discriminative Adversarial Domai…

In this paper, we propose Factorized Adversarial Networks (FAN) to solve unsupervised domain adaptation problems for image classification tasks. Our networks map the data distribution into a latent feature space, which is factorized into a domain-specific subspace that contains domain-specific characteristics and a task-specific subspace that retains category information, for both source and target domains, respectively. Unsupervised domain adaptation is achieved by adversarial training to minimize the discrepancy between the distributions of two task-specific subspaces from source and target …
In contrast to a standard closed-set domain adaptation task, partial domain adaptation setup caters to a realistic scenario by relaxing the identical label set assumption. The fact of source label set subsuming the target label set, however, introduces few additional obstacles as training on private source category samples thwart relevant knowledge transfer and mislead the classification process. To mitigate these issues, we devise a mechanism for strategic selection of highly-confident target samples essential for the estimation of class-importance weights. Furthermore, we capture class-discr…
Existing adversarial domain adaptation methods mainly consider the marginal distribution and these methods may lead to either under transfer or negative transfer. To address this problem, we present a self-adaptive re-weighted adversarial domain adaptation approach, which tries to enhance domain alignment from the perspective of conditional distribution. In order to promote positive transfer and combat negative transfer, we reduce the weight of the adversarial loss for aligned features while increasing the adversarial force for those poorly aligned measured by the conditional entropy. Addition…

Relation extraction aims to extract relational facts from sentences. Previous models mainly rely on manually labeled datasets, seed instances or human-crafted patterns, and distant supervision. However, the human annotation is expensive, while human-crafted patterns suffer from semantic drift and distant supervision samples are usually noisy. Domain adaptation methods enable leveraging labeled data from a different but related domain. However, different domains usually have various textual relation descriptions and different label space (the source label space is usually a superset of the targ…
With the successful adoption of machine learning on electronic health records (EHRs), numerous computational models have been deployed to address a variety of clinical problems. However, due to the heterogeneity of EHRs, models trained on different patient groups suffer from poor generalizability. How to mitigate domain shifts between the source patient group where the model is built upon and the target one where the model will be deployed becomes a critical issue. In this paper, we propose a data augmentation method to facilitate domain adaptation, which leverages knowledge from the source pa…

Deep models trained on large-scale RGB image datasets have shown tremendous success. It is important to apply such deep models to real-world problems. However, these models suffer from a performance bottleneck under illumination changes. Thermal IR cameras are more robust against such changes, and thus can be very useful for the real-world problems. In order to investigate efficacy of combining feature-rich visible spectrum and thermal image modalities, we propose an unsupervised domain adaptation method which does not require RGB-to-thermal image pairs. We employ large-scale RGB dataset MS-CO…

We aim at the problem named One-Shot Unsupervised Domain Adaptation. Unlike traditional Unsupervised Domain Adaptation, it assumes that only one unlabeled target sample can be available when learning to adapt. This setting is realistic but more challenging, in which conventional adaptation approaches are prone to failure due to the scarce of unlabeled target data. To this end, we propose a novel Adversarial Style Mining approach, which combines the style transfer module and task-specific module into an adversarial manner. Specifically, the style transfer module iteratively searches for harder …
We present a novel instance-based approach to handle regression tasks in the context of supervised domain adaptation under an assumption of covariate shift. The approach developed in this paper is based on the assumption that the task on the target domain can be efficiently learned by adequately reweighting the source instances during training phase. We introduce a novel formulation of the optimization objective for domain adaptation which relies on a discrepancy distance characterizing the difference between domains according to a specific task and a class of hypotheses. To solve this problem…
Speech emotion recognition plays an important role in building more intelligent and human-like agents. Due to the difficulty of collecting speech emotional data, an increasingly popular solution is leveraging a related and rich source corpus to help address the target corpus. However, domain shift between the corpora poses a serious challenge, making domain shift adaptation difficult to function even on the recognition of positive/negative emotions. In this work, we propose class-wise adversarial domain adaptation to address this challenge by reducing the shift for all classes between differen…
Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) methods aim to transfer knowledge from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. UDA has been extensively studied in the computer vision literature. Deep networks have been shown to be vulnerable to adversarial attacks. However, very little focus is devoted to improving the adversarial robustness of deep UDA models, causing serious concerns about model reliability. Adversarial Training (AT) has been considered to be the most successful adversarial defense approach. Nevertheless, conventional AT requires ground-truth labels to generate adversari…

Recently, remarkable progress has been made in learning transferable representation across domains. Previous works in domain adaptation are majorly based on two techniques: domain-adversarial learning and self-training. However, domain-adversarial learning only aligns feature distributions between domains but does not consider whether the target features are discriminative. On the other hand, self-training utilizes the model predictions to enhance the discrimination of target features, but it is unable to explicitly align domain distributions. In order to combine the strengths of these two met…
A challenging problem in deep learning-based machine listening field is the degradation of the performance when using data from unseen conditions. In this paper we focus on the acoustic scene classification (ASC) task and propose an adversarial deep learning method to allow adapting an acoustic scene classification system to deal with a new acoustic channel resulting from data captured with a different recording device. We build upon the theoretical model of HΔH-distance and previous adversarial discriminative deep learning method for ASC unsupervised domain adaptation, and we present an adver…

Data augmentation has been widely used to improve generalization in training deep neural networks. Recent works show that using worst-case transformations or adversarial augmentation strategies can significantly improve the accuracy and robustness. However, due to the non-differentiable properties of image transformations, searching algorithms such as reinforcement learning or evolution strategy have to be applied, which are not computationally practical for large scale problems. In this work, we show that by simply applying consistency training with random data augmentation, state-of-the-art …

Adversarial training is a useful approach to promote the learning of transferable representations across the source and target domains, which has been widely applied for domain adaptation (DA) tasks based on deep neural networks. Until very recently, existing adversarial domain adaptation (ADA) methods ignore the useful information from the label space, which is an important factor accountable for the complicated data distributions associated with different semantic classes. Especially, the inter-class semantic relationships have been rarely considered and discussed in the current work of tran…

We propose an active learning approach for transferring representations across domains. Our approach, active adversarial domain adaptation (AADA), explores a duality between two related problems: adversarial domain alignment and importance sampling for adapting models across domains. The former uses a domain discriminative model to align domains, while the latter utilizes it to weigh samples to account for distribution shifts. Specifically, our importance weight promotes samples with large uncertainty in classification and diversity from labeled examples, thus serves as a sample selection sche…
Unsupervised domain adaptation aims at transferring knowledge from the labeled source domain to the unlabeled target domain. Previous adversarial domain adaptation methods mostly adopt the discriminator with binary or $K$-dimensional output to perform marginal or conditional alignment independently. Recent experiments have shown that when the discriminator is provided with domain information in both domains and label information in the source domain, it is able to preserve the complex multimodal information and high semantic information in both domains. Following this idea, we adopt a discrimi…

We tackle the domain generalisation (DG) problem by posing it as a domain adaptation (DA) task where we adversarially synthesise the worst-case target domain and adapt a model to that worst-case domain, thereby improving the model's robustness. To synthesise data that is challenging yet semantics-preserving, we generate Fourier amplitude images and combine them with source domain phase images, exploiting the widely believed conjecture from signal processing that amplitude spectra mainly determines image style, while phase data mainly captures image semantics. To synthesise a worst-case domain …
We consider unsupervised domain adaptation: given labelled examples from a source domain and unlabelled examples from a related target domain, the goal is to infer the labels of target examples. Under the assumption that features from pre-trained deep neural networks are transferable across related domains, domain adaptation reduces to aligning source and target domain at class prediction uncertainty level. We tackle this problem by introducing a method based on adversarial learning which forces the label uncertainty predictions on the target domain to be indistinguishable from those on the so…

This paper studies the problem of stance detection which aims to predict the perspective (or stance) of a given document with respect to a given claim. Stance detection is a major component of automated fact checking. As annotating stances in different domains is a tedious and costly task, automatic methods based on machine learning are viable alternatives. In this paper, we focus on adversarial domain adaptation for stance detection where we assume there exists sufficient labeled data in the source domain and limited labeled data in the target domain. Extensive experiments on publicly availab…

Domain adaptation (DA) and domain generalization (DG) have emerged as a solution to the domain shift problem where the distribution of the source and target data is different. The task of DG is more challenging than DA as the target data is totally unseen during the training phase in DG scenarios. The current state-of-the-art employs adversarial techniques, however, these are rarely considered for the DG problem. Furthermore, these approaches do not consider correlation alignment which has been proven highly beneficial for minimizing domain discrepancy. In this paper, we propose a correlation-…

(Unsupervised) Domain Adaptation (DA) seeks for classifying target instances when solely provided with source labeled and target unlabeled examples for training. Learning domain-invariant features helps to achieve this goal, whereas it underpins unlabeled samples drawn from a single or multiple explicit target domains (Multi-target DA). In this paper, we consider a more realistic transfer scenario: our target domain is comprised of multiple sub-targets implicitly blended with each other, so that learners could not identify which sub-target each unlabeled sample belongs to. This Blending-target…
Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) has shown remarkable results in bearing fault diagnosis under changing working conditions in recent years. However, most UDA methods do not consider the geometric structure of the data. Furthermore, the global domain adaptation technique is commonly applied, which ignores the relation between subdomains. This paper addresses mentioned challenges by presenting the novel deep subdomain adaptation graph convolution neural network (DSAGCN), which has two key characteristics: First, graph convolution neural network (GCNN) is employed to model the structure of da…

Multi-source unsupervised domain adaptation (MS-UDA) for sentiment analysis (SA) aims to leverage useful information in multiple source domains to help do SA in an unlabeled target domain that has no supervised information. Existing algorithms of MS-UDA either only exploit the shared features, i.e., the domain-invariant information, or based on some weak assumption in NLP, e.g., smoothness assumption. To avoid these problems, we propose two transfer learning frameworks based on the multi-source domain adaptation methodology for SA by combining the source hypotheses to derive a good target hypo…
Recent works on domain adaptation reveal the effectiveness of adversarial learning on filling the discrepancy between source and target domains. However, two common limitations exist in current adversarial-learning-based methods. First, samples from two domains alone are not sufficient to ensure domain-invariance at most part of latent space. Second, the domain discriminator involved in these methods can only judge real or fake with the guidance of hard label, while it is more reasonable to use soft scores to evaluate the generated images or features, i.e., to fully utilize the inter-domain in…

We present VoloGAN, an adversarial domain adaptation network that translates synthetic RGB-D images of a high-quality 3D model of a person, into RGB-D images that could be generated with a consumer depth sensor. This system is especially useful to generate high amount training data for single-view 3D reconstruction algorithms replicating the real-world capture conditions, being able to imitate the style of different sensor types, for the same high-end 3D model database. The network uses a CycleGAN framework with a U-Net architecture for the generator and a discriminator inspired by SIV-GAN. We…
Appearance changes due to weather and seasonal conditions represent a strong impediment to the robust implementation of machine learning systems in outdoor robotics. While supervised learning optimises a model for the training domain, it will deliver degraded performance in application domains that underlie distributional shifts caused by these changes. Traditionally, this problem has been addressed via the collection of labelled data in multiple domains or by imposing priors on the type of shift between both domains. We frame the problem in the context of unsupervised domain adaptation and de…

Recent advances on unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) rely on adversarial learning to disentangle the explanatory and transferable features for domain adaptation. However, there are two issues with the existing methods. First, the discriminability of the latent space cannot be fully guaranteed without considering the class-aware information in the target domain. Second, samples from the source and target domains alone are not sufficient for domain-invariant feature extracting in the latent space. In order to alleviate the above issues, we propose a dual mixup regularized learning (DMRL) meth…
Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) aims to bridge the gap between a source domain, where labelled data are available, and a target domain only represented with unlabelled data. If domain invariant representations have dramatically improved the adaptability of models, to guarantee their good transferability remains a challenging problem. This paper addresses this problem by using active learning to annotate a small budget of target data. Although this setup, called Active Domain Adaptation (ADA), deviates from UDA's standard setup, a wide range of practical applications are faced with this si…
The teacher-student (T/S) learning has been shown effective in unsupervised domain adaptation [1]. It is a form of transfer learning, not in terms of the transfer of recognition decisions, but the knowledge of posteriori probabilities in the source domain as evaluated by the teacher model. It learns to handle the speaker and environment variability inherent in and restricted to the speech signal in the target domain without proactively addressing the robustness to other likely conditions. Performance degradation may thus ensue. In this work, we advance T/S learning by proposing adversarial T/S…

We apply adversarial domain adaptation in unsupervised setting to reduce sample bias in a supervised high energy physics events classifier training. We make use of a neural network containing event and domain classifier with a gradient reversal layer to simultaneously enable signal versus background events classification on the one hand, while on the other hand minimising the difference in response of the network to background samples originating from different MC models via adversarial domain classification loss. We show the successful bias removal on the example of simulated events at the LH…
Open-Set Domain Adaptation (OSDA) assumes that a target domain contains unknown classes, which are not discovered in a source domain. Existing domain adversarial learning methods are not suitable for OSDA because distribution matching with $\textit{unknown}$ classes leads to negative transfer. Previous OSDA methods have focused on matching the source and the target distribution by only utilizing $\textit{known}$ classes. However, this $\textit{known}$-only matching may fail to learn the target-$\textit{unknown}$ feature space. Therefore, we propose Unknown-Aware Domain Adversarial Learning (UA…

The diversity of retinal imaging devices poses a significant challenge: domain shift, which leads to performance degradation when applying the deep learning models trained on one domain to new testing domains. In this paper, we propose a multi-scale input along with multiple domain adaptors applied hierarchically in both feature and output spaces. The proposed training strategy and novel unsupervised domain adaptation framework, called Collaborative Adversarial Domain Adaptation (CADA), can effectively overcome the challenge. Multi-scale inputs can reduce the information loss due to the poolin…

Meta-learning has emerged as a trending technique to tackle few-shot text classification and achieved state-of-the-art performance. However, existing solutions heavily rely on the exploitation of lexical features and their distributional signatures on training data, while neglecting to strengthen the model's ability to adapt to new tasks. In this paper, we propose a novel meta-learning framework integrated with an adversarial domain adaptation network, aiming to improve the adaptive ability of the model and generate high-quality text embedding for new classes. Extensive experiments are conduct…
Understanding proper distance measures between distributions is at the core of several learning tasks such as generative models, domain adaptation, clustering, etc. In this work, we focus on mixture distributions that arise naturally in several application domains where the data contains different sub-populations. For mixture distributions, established distance measures such as the Wasserstein distance do not take into account imbalanced mixture proportions. Thus, even if two mixture distributions have identical mixture components but different mixture proportions, the Wasserstein distance bet…

Heterogeneous domain adaptation (HDA) tackles the learning of cross-domain samples with both different probability distributions and feature representations. Most of the existing HDA studies focus on the single-source scenario. In reality, however, it is not uncommon to obtain samples from multiple heterogeneous domains. In this article, we study the multisource HDA problem and propose a conditional weighting adversarial network (CWAN) to address it. The proposed CWAN adversarially learns a feature transformer, a label classifier, and a domain discriminator. To quantify the importance of diffe…

Using datasets from two different domains, we compare the performance of a deep learning-based harmonic-percussive source separation model under different training scenarios, including supervised joint training using data from both domains and pre-training in one domain with fine-tuning in another. We propose an adversarial unsupervised domain adaptation approach suitable for the case where no labelled data (ground-truth source signals) from a target domain is available. By leveraging unlabelled data…
Discrepancy between training and testing domains is a fundamental problem in the generalization of machine learning techniques. Recently, several approaches have been proposed to learn domain invariant feature representations through adversarial deep learning. However, label shift, where the percentage of data in each class is different between domains, has received less attention. Label shift naturally arises in many contexts, especially in behavioral studies where the behaviors are freely chosen. In this work, we propose a method called Domain Adversarial nets for Target Shift (DATS) to addr…

In this work, we propose an adversarial unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) approach with the inherent conditional and label shifts, in which we aim to align the distributions w.r.t. both $p(x|y)$ and $p(y)$. Since the label is inaccessible in the target domain, the conventional adversarial UDA assumes $p(y)$ is invariant across domains, and relies on aligning $p(x)$ as an alternative to the $p(x|y)$ alignment. To address this, we provide a thorough theoretical and empirical analysis of the conventional adversarial UDA methods under both conditional and label shifts, and propose a novel and p…
Domain adaptation helps transfer the knowledge gained from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. During the past few years, different domain adaptation techniques have been published. One common flaw of these approaches is that while they might work well on one input type, such as images, their performance drops when applied to others, such as text or time-series. In this paper, we introduce Proportional Progressive Pseudo Labeling (PPPL), a simple, yet effective technique that can be implemented in a few lines of code to build a more general domain adaptation technique that c…
Due to the numerous potential applications in visual surveillance and nighttime driving, recognizing human action in low-light conditions remains a difficult problem in computer vision. Existing methods separate action recognition and dark enhancement into two distinct steps to accomplish this task. However, isolating the recognition and enhancement impedes end-to-end learning of the space-time representation for video action classification. This paper presents a domain adaptation-based action recognition approach that uses adversarial learning in cross-domain settings to learn cross-domain ac…
