In this paper, we provide two main contributions in PAC-Bayesian theory for domain adaptation where the objective is to learn, from a source distribution, a well-performing majority vote on a different target distribution. On the one hand, we propose an improvement of the previous approach proposed by Germain et al. (2013), that relies on a novel distribution pseudodistance based on a disagreement averaging, allowing us to derive a new tighter PAC-Bayesian domain adaptation bound for the stochastic Gibbs classifier. We specialize it to linear classifiers, and design a learning algorithm which shows interesting results on a synthetic problem and on a popular sentiment annotation task. On the other hand, we generalize these results to multisource domain adaptation allowing us to take into account different source domains. This study opens the door to tackle domain adaptation tasks by making use of all the PAC-Bayesian tools.

We study the issue of PAC-Bayesian domain adaptation: We want to learn, from a source domain, a majority vote model dedicated to a target one. Our theoretical contribution brings a new perspective by deriving an upper-bound on the target risk where t
he distributions divergence---expressed as a ratio---controls the trade-off between a source error measure and the target voters disagreement. Our bound suggests that one has to focus on regions where the source data is informative.From this result, we derive a PAC-Bayesian generalization bound, and specialize it to linear classifiers. Then, we infer a learning algorithmand perform experiments on real data.
This paper provides a theoretical analysis of domain adaptation based on the PAC-Bayesian theory. We propose an improvement of the previous domain adaptation bound obtained by Germain et al. in two ways. We first give another generalization bound tig
hter and easier to interpret. Moreover, we provide a new analysis of the constant term appearing in the bound that can be of high interest for developing new algorithmic solutions.
We provide two main contributions in PAC-Bayesian theory for domain adaptation where the objective is to learn, from a source distribution, a well-performing majority vote on a different, but related, target distribution. Firstly, we propose an impro
vement of the previous approach we proposed in Germain et al. (2013), which relies on a novel distribution pseudodistance based on a disagreement averaging, allowing us to derive a new tighter domain adaptation bound for the target risk. While this bound stands in the spirit of common domain adaptation works, we derive a second bound (introduced in Germain et al., 2016) that brings a new perspective on domain adaptation by deriving an upper bound on the target risk where the distributions divergence-expressed as a ratio-controls the trade-off between a source error measure and the target voters disagreement. We discuss and compare both results, from which we obtain PAC-Bayesian generalization bounds. Furthermore, from the PAC-Bayesian specialization to linear classifiers, we infer two learning algorithms, and we evaluate them on real data.
This article investigates the quality of the estimator of the linear Monge mapping between distributions. We provide the first concentration result on the linear mapping operator and prove a sample complexity of $n^{-1/2}$ when using empirical estima
tes of first and second order moments. This result is then used to derive a generalization bound for domain adaptation with optimal transport. As a consequence, this method approaches the performance of theoretical Bayes predictor under mild conditions on the covariance structure of the problem. We also discuss the computational complexity of the linear mapping estimation and show that when the source and target are stationary the mapping is a convolution that can be estimated very efficiently using fast Fourier transforms. Numerical experiments reproduce the behavior of the proven bounds on simulated and real data for mapping estimation and domain adaptation on images.
Supervised learning with large scale labeled datasets and deep layered models has made a paradigm shift in diverse areas in learning and recognition. However, this approach still suffers generalization issues under the presence of a domain shift betw
een the training and the test data distribution. In this regard, unsupervised domain adaptation algorithms have been proposed to directly address the domain shift problem. In this paper, we approach the problem from a transductive perspective. We incorporate the domain shift and the transductive target inference into our framework by jointly solving for an asymmetric similarity metric and the optimal transductive target label assignment. We also show that our model can easily be extended for deep feature learning in order to learn features which are discriminative in the target domain. Our experiments show that the proposed method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms in both object recognition and digit classification experiments by a large margin.
