Given multiple source datasets with labels, how can we train a target model with no labeled data? Multi-source domain adaptation (MSDA) aims to train a model using multiple source datasets different from a target dataset in the absence of target data labels. MSDA is a crucial problem applicable to many practical cases where labels for the target data are unavailable due to privacy issues. Existing MSDA frameworks are limited since they align data without considering conditional distributions p(x|y) of each domain. They also miss a lot of target label information by not considering the target label at all and relying on only one feature extractor. In this paper, we propose Ensemble Multi-source Domain Adaptation with Pseudolabels (EnMDAP), a novel method for multi-source domain adaptation. EnMDAP exploits label-wise moment matching to align conditional distributions p(x|y), using pseudolabels for the unavailable target labels, and introduces ensemble learning theme by using multiple feature extractors for accurate domain adaptation. Extensive experiments show that EnMDAP provides the state-of-the-art performance for multi-source domain adaptation tasks in both of image domains and text domains.

In many real-world applications, we want to exploit multiple source datasets of similar tasks to learn a model for a different but related target dataset -- e.g., recognizing characters of a new font using a set of different fonts. While most recent research has considered ad-hoc combination rules to address this problem, we extend previous work on domain discrepancy minimization to develop a finite-sample generalization bound, and accordingly propose a theoretically justified optimization procedure. The algorithm we develop, Domain AggRegation Network (DARN), is able to effectively adjust the weight of each source domain during training to ensure relevant domains are given more importance for adaptation. We evaluate the proposed method on real-world sentiment analysis and digit recognition datasets and show that DARN can significantly outperform the state-of-the-art alternatives.

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, i t 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 different source domains, CWAN introduces a sophisticated conditional weighting scheme to calculate the weights of the source domains according to the conditional distribution divergence between the source and target domains. Different from existing weighting schemes, the proposed conditional weighting scheme not only weights the source domains but also implicitly aligns the conditional distributions during the optimization process. Experimental results clearly demonstrate that the proposed CWAN performs much better than several state-of-the-art methods on four real-world datasets.
In this paper, we address the Online Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (OUDA) problem, where the target data are unlabelled and arriving sequentially. The traditional methods on the OUDA problem mainly focus on transforming each arriving target data to the source domain, and they do not sufficiently consider the temporal coherency and accumulative statistics among the arriving target data. We propose a multi-step framework for the OUDA problem, which institutes a novel method to compute the mean-target subspace inspired by the geometrical interpretation on the Euclidean space. This mean-target subspace contains accumulative temporal information among the arrived target data. Moreover, the transformation matrix computed from the mean-target subspace is applied to the next target data as a preprocessing step, aligning the target data closer to the source domain. Experiments on four datasets demonstrated the contribution of each step in our proposed multi-step OUDA framework and its performance over previous approaches.
Conventional unsupervised multi-source domain adaptation (UMDA) methods assume all source domains can be accessed directly. This neglects the privacy-preserving policy, that is, all the data and computations must be kept decentralized. There exists t hree problems in this scenario: (1) Minimizing the domain distance requires the pairwise calculation of the data from source and target domains, which is not accessible. (2) The communication cost and privacy security limit the application of UMDA methods (e.g., the domain adversarial training). (3) Since users have no authority to check the data quality, the irrelevant or malicious source domains are more likely to appear, which causes negative transfer. In this study, we propose a privacy-preserving UMDA paradigm named Knowledge Distillation based Decentralized Domain Adaptation (KD3A), which performs domain adaptation through the knowledge distillation on models from different source domains. KD3A solves the above problems with three components: (1) A multi-source knowledge distillation method named Knowledge Vote to learn high-quality domain consensus knowledge. (2) A dynamic weighting strategy named Consensus Focus to identify both the malicious and irrelevant domains. (3) A decentralized optimization strategy for domain distance named BatchNorm MMD. The extensive experiments on DomainNet demonstrate that KD3A is robust to the negative transfer and brings a 100x reduction of communication cost compared with other decentralized UMDA methods. Moreover, our KD3A significantly outperforms state-of-the-art UMDA approaches.

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 perfor m 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 discriminator with $2K$-dimensional output to perform both domain-level and class-level alignments simultaneously in a single discriminator. However, a single discriminator can not capture all the useful information across domains and the relationships between the examples and the decision boundary are rarely explored before. Inspired by multi-view learning and latest advances in domain adaptation, besides the adversarial process between the discriminator and the feature extractor, we also design a novel mechanism to make two discriminators pit against each other, so that they can provide diverse information for each other and avoid generating target features outside the support of the source domain. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time to explore a dual adversarial strategy in domain adaptation. Moreover, we also use the semi-supervised learning regularization to make the representations more discriminative. Comprehensive experiments on two real-world datasets verify that our method outperforms several state-of-the-art domain adaptation methods.
