Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) often have poor generalization performance under domain shift. One way to improve domain generalization is to collect diverse source data from multiple relevant domains so that a CNN model is allowed to learn more domain-invariant, and hence generalizable representations. In this work, we address domain generalization with MixStyle, a plug-and-play, parameter-free module that is simply inserted to shallow CNN layers and requires no modification to training objectives. Specifically, MixStyle probabilistically mixes feature statistics between instances. This idea is inspired by the observation that visual domains can often be characterized by image styles which are in turn encapsulated within instance-level feature statistics in shallow CNN layers. Therefore, inserting MixStyle modules in effect synthesizes novel domains albeit in an implicit way. MixStyle is not only simple and flexible, but also versatile -- it can be used for problems whereby unlabeled images are available, such as semi-supervised domain generalization and unsupervised domain adaptation, with a simple extension to mix feature statistics between labeled and pseudo-labeled instances. We demonstrate through extensive experiments that MixStyle can significantly boost the out-of-distribution generalization performance across a wide range of tasks including object recognition, instance retrieval, and reinforcement learning.
Though convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have demonstrated remarkable ability in learning discriminative features, they often generalize poorly to unseen domains. Domain generalization aims to address this problem by learning from a set of source
Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) aims to transfer knowledge learned from a fully-labeled source domain to a different unlabeled target domain. Most existing UDA methods learn domain-invariant feature representations by minimizing feature distance
Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) aims to generalize the knowledge learned from a well-labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. Recently, adversarial domain adaptation with two distinct classifiers (bi-classifier) has been introduced i
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 u
To reduce annotation labor associated with object detection, an increasing number of studies focus on transferring the learned knowledge from a labeled source domain to another unlabeled target domain. However, existing methods assume that the labele
