Entropy minimization has been widely used in unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA). However, existing works reveal that entropy minimization only may result into collapsed trivial solutions. In this paper, we propose to avoid trivial solutions by further introducing diversity maximization. In order to achieve the possible minimum target risk for UDA, we show that diversity maximization should be elaborately balanced with entropy minimization, the degree of which can be finely controlled with the use of deep embedded validation in an unsupervised manner. The proposed minimal-entropy diversity maximization (MEDM) can be directly implemented by stochastic gradient descent without use of adversarial learning. Empirical evidence demonstrates that MEDM outperforms the state-of-the-art methods on four popular domain adaptation datasets.

A model must adapt itself to generalize to new and different data during testing. In this setting of fully test-time adaptation the model has only the test data and its own parameters. We propose to adapt by test entropy minimization (tent): we optim
ize the model for confidence as measured by the entropy of its predictions. Our method estimates normalization statistics and optimizes channel-wise affine transformations to update online on each batch. Tent reduces generalization error for image classification on corrupted ImageNet and CIFAR-10/100 and reaches a new state-of-the-art error on ImageNet-C. Tent handles source-free domain adaptation on digit recognition from SVHN to MNIST/MNIST-M/USPS, on semantic segmentation from GTA to Cityscapes, and on the VisDA-C benchmark. These results are achieved in one epoch of test-time optimization without altering training.
Unsupervised domain adaptation aims to transfer knowledge from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. Previous methods focus on learning domain-invariant features to decrease the discrepancy between the feature distributions as well a
s minimizing the source error and have made remarkable progress. However, a recently proposed theory reveals that such a strategy is not sufficient for a successful domain adaptation. It shows that besides a small source error, both the discrepancy between the feature distributions and the discrepancy between the labeling functions should be small across domains. The discrepancy between the labeling functions is essentially the cross-domain errors which are ignored by existing methods. To overcome this issue, in this paper, a novel method is proposed to integrate all the objectives into a unified optimization framework. Moreover, the incorrect pseudo labels widely used in previous methods can lead to error accumulation during learning. To alleviate this problem, the pseudo labels are obtained by utilizing structural information of the target domain besides source classifier and we propose a curriculum learning based strategy to select the target samples with more accurate pseudo-labels during training. Comprehensive experiments are conducted, and the results validate that our approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods.
Domain adaptation (DA) aims to transfer discriminative features learned from source domain to target domain. Most of DA methods focus on enhancing feature transferability through domain-invariance learning. However, source-learned discriminability it
self might be tailored to be biased and unsafely transferable by spurious correlations, emph{i.e.}, part of source-specific features are correlated with category labels. We find that standard domain-invariance learning suffers from such correlations and incorrectly transfers the source-specifics. To address this issue, we intervene in the learning of feature discriminability using unlabeled target data to guide it to get rid of the domain-specific part and be safely transferable. Concretely, we generate counterfactual features that distinguish the domain-specifics from domain-sharable part through a novel feature intervention strategy. To prevent the residence of domain-specifics, the feature discriminability is trained to be invariant to the mutations in the domain-specifics of counterfactual features. Experimenting on typical emph{one-to-one} unsupervised domain adaptation and challenging domain-agnostic adaptation tasks, the consistent performance improvements of our method over state-of-the-art approaches validate that the learned discriminative features are more safely transferable and generalize well to novel domains.
Due to the domain discrepancy in visual domain adaptation, the performance of source model degrades when bumping into the high data density near decision boundary in target domain. A common solution is to minimize the Shannon Entropy to push the deci
sion boundary away from the high density area. However, entropy minimization also leads to severe reduction of prediction diversity, and unfortunately brings harm to the domain adaptation. In this paper, we investigate the prediction discriminability and diversity by studying the structure of the classification output matrix of a randomly selected data batch. We find by theoretical analysis that the prediction discriminability and diversity could be separately measured by the Frobenius-norm and rank of the batch output matrix. The nuclear-norm is an upperbound of the former, and a convex approximation of the latter. Accordingly, we propose Batch Nuclear-norm Maximization and Minimization, which performs nuclear-norm maximization on the target output matrix to enhance the target prediction ability, and nuclear-norm minimization on the source batch output matrix to increase applicability of the source domain knowledge. We further approximate the nuclear-norm by L_{1,2}-norm, and design multi-batch optimization for stable solution on large number of categories. The fast approximation method achieves O(n^2) computational complexity and better convergence property. Experiments show that our method could boost the adaptation accuracy and robustness under three typical domain adaptation scenarios. The code is available at https://github.com/cuishuhao/BNM.
There are a variety of Domain Adaptation (DA) scenarios subject to label sets and domain configurations, including closed-set and partial-set DA, as well as multi-source and multi-target DA. It is notable that existing DA methods are generally design
ed only for a specific scenario, and may underperform for scenarios they are not tailored to. To this end, this paper studies Versatile Domain Adaptation (VDA), where one method can handle several different DA scenarios without any modification. Towards this goal, a more general inductive bias other than the domain alignment should be explored. We delve into a missing piece of existing methods: class confusion, the tendency that a classifier confuses the predictions between the correct and ambiguous classes for target examples, which is common in different DA scenarios. We uncover that reducing such pairwise class confusion leads to significant transfer gains. With this insight, we propose a general loss function: Minimum Class Confusion (MCC). It can be characterized as (1) a non-adversarial DA method without explicitly deploying domain alignment, enjoying faster convergence speed; (2) a versatile approach that can handle four existing scenarios: Closed-Set, Partial-Set, Multi-Source, and Multi-Target DA, outperforming the state-of-the-art methods in these scenarios, especially on one of the largest and hardest datasets to date (7.3% on DomainNet). Its versatility is further justified by two scenarios proposed in this paper: Multi-Source Partial DA and Multi-Target Partial DA. In addition, it can also be used as a general regularizer that is orthogonal and complementary to a variety of existing DA methods, accelerating convergence and pushing these readily competitive methods to stronger ones.
