Towards better unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA). Recently, researchers propose various domain-conditioned attention modules and make promising progresses. However, considering that the configuration of attention, i.e., the type and the position of attention module, affects the performance significantly, it is more generalized to optimize the attention configuration automatically to be specialized for arbitrary UDA scenario. For the first time, this paper proposes EvoADA: a novel framework to evolve the attention configuration for a given UDA task without human intervention. In particular, we propose a novel search space containing diverse attention configurations. Then, to evaluate the attention configurations and make search procedure UDA-oriented (transferability + discrimination), we apply a simple and effective evaluation strategy: 1) training the network weights on two domains with off-the-shelf domain adaptation methods; 2) evolving the attention configurations under the guide of the discriminative ability on the target domain. Experiments on various kinds of cross-domain benchmarks, i.e., Office-31, Office-Home, CUB-Paintings, and Duke-Market-1510, reveal that the proposed EvoADA consistently boosts multiple state-of-the-art domain adaptation approaches, and the optimal attention configurations help them achieve better performance.

Big progress has been achieved in domain adaptation in decades. Existing works are always based on an ideal assumption that testing target domain are i.i.d. with training target domains. However, due to unpredictable corruptions (e.g., noise and blur
) in real data like web images, domain adaptation methods are increasingly required to be corruption robust on target domains. In this paper, we investigate a new task, Corruption-agnostic Robust Domain Adaptation (CRDA): to be accurate on original data and robust against unavailable-for-training corruptions on target domains. This task is non-trivial due to large domain discrepancy and unsupervised target domains. We observe that simple combinations of popular methods of domain adaptation and corruption robustness have sub-optimal CRDA results. We propose a new approach based on two technical insights into CRDA: 1) an easy-to-plug module called Domain Discrepancy Generator (DDG) that generates samples that enlarge domain discrepancy to mimic unpredictable corruptions; 2) a simple but effective teacher-student scheme with contrastive loss to enhance the constraints on target domains. Experiments verify that DDG keeps or even improves performance on original data and achieves better corruption robustness that baselines.
Unsupervised domain adaptation is critical in various computer vision tasks, such as object detection, instance segmentation, and semantic segmentation, which aims to alleviate performance degradation caused by domain-shift. Most of previous methods
rely on a single-mode distribution of source and target domains to align them with adversarial learning, leading to inferior results in various scenarios. To that end, in this paper, we design a new spatial attention pyramid network for unsupervised domain adaptation. Specifically, we first build the spatial pyramid representation to capture context information of objects at different scales. Guided by the task-specific information, we combine the dense global structure representation and local texture patterns at each spatial location effectively using the spatial attention mechanism. In this way, the network is enforced to focus on the discriminative regions with context information for domain adaption. We conduct extensive experiments on various challenging datasets for unsupervised domain adaptation on object detection, instance segmentation, and semantic segmentation, which demonstrates that our method performs favorably against the state-of-the-art methods by a large margin.

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) can transfer knowledge from labeled source data to unlabeled target data of the same categories. However, UDA for first-person action recognition is an under-explored problem, with lack of datasets and limited con
sideration of first-person video characteristics. This paper focuses on addressing this problem. Firstly, we propose two small-scale first-person video domain adaptation datasets: ADL$_{small}$ and GTEA-KITCHEN. Secondly, we introduce channel-temporal attention blocks to capture the channel-wise and temporal-wise relationships and model their inter-dependencies important to first-person vision. Finally, we propose a Channel-Temporal Attention Network (CTAN) to integrate these blocks into existing architectures. CTAN outperforms baselines on the two proposed datasets and one existing dataset EPIC$_{cvpr20}$.
Domain Adaptation (DA) targets at adapting a model trained over the well-labeled source domain to the unlabeled target domain lying in different distributions. Existing DA normally assumes the well-labeled source domain is class-wise balanced, which
means the size per source class is relatively similar. However, in real-world applications, labeled samples for some categories in the source domain could be extremely few due to the difficulty of data collection and annotation, which leads to decreasing performance over target domain on those few-shot categories. To perform fair cross-domain adaptation and boost the performance on these minority categories, we develop a novel Generative Few-shot Cross-domain Adaptation (GFCA) algorithm for fair cross-domain classification. Specifically, generative feature augmentation is explored to synthesize effective training data for few-shot source classes, while effective cross-domain alignment aims to adapt knowledge from source to facilitate the target learning. Experimental results on two large cross-domain visual datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method on improving both few-shot and overall classification accuracy comparing with the state-of-the-art DA approaches.
Recent advances in unsupervised domain adaptation mainly focus on learning shared representations by global distribution alignment without considering class information across domains. The neglect of class information, however, may lead to partial al
ignment (or even misalignment) and poor generalization performance. For comprehensive alignment, we argue that the similarities across different features in the source domain should be consistent with that of in the target domain. Based on this assumption, we propose a new domain discrepancy metric, i.e., Self-similarity Consistency (SSC), to enforce the feature structure being consistent across domains. The renowned correlation alignment (CORAL) is proven to be a special case, and a sub-optimal measure of our proposed SSC. Furthermore, we also propose to mitigate the side effect of the partial alignment and misalignment by incorporating the discriminative information of the deep representations. Specifically, an embarrassingly simple and effective feature norm constraint is exploited to enlarge the discrepancy of inter-class samples. It relieves the requirements of strict alignment when performing adaptation, therefore improving the adaptation performance significantly. Extensive experiments on visual domain adaptation tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed SSC metric and feature discrimination approach.
