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 decision 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.

The learning of the deep networks largely relies on the data with human-annotated labels. In some label insufficient situations, the performance degrades on the decision boundary with high data density. A common solution is to directly minimize the S
hannon Entropy, but the side effect caused by entropy minimization, i.e., reduction of the prediction diversity, is mostly ignored. To address this issue, we reinvestigate the structure of 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. Besides, the nuclear-norm is an upperbound of the Frobenius-norm, and a convex approximation of the matrix rank. Accordingly, to improve both discriminability and diversity, we propose Batch Nuclear-norm Maximization (BNM) on the output matrix. BNM could boost the learning under typical label insufficient learning scenarios, such as semi-supervised learning, domain adaptation and open domain recognition. On these tasks, extensive experimental results show that BNM outperforms competitors and works well with existing well-known methods. The code is available at https://github.com/cuishuhao/BNM.
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 furt
her 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.
Rank minimization methods have attracted considerable interest in various areas, such as computer vision and machine learning. The most representative work is nuclear norm minimization (NNM), which can recover the matrix rank exactly under some restr
icted and theoretical guarantee conditions. However, for many real applications, NNM is not able to approximate the matrix rank accurately, since it often tends to over-shrink the rank components. To rectify the weakness of NNM, recent advances have shown that weighted nuclear norm minimization (WNNM) can achieve a better matrix rank approximation than NNM, which heuristically set the weight being inverse to the singular values. However, it still lacks a sound mathematical explanation on why WNNM is more feasible than NNM. In this paper, we propose a scheme to analyze WNNM and NNM from the perspective of the group sparse representation. Specifically, we design an adaptive dictionary to bridge the gap between the group sparse representation and the rank minimization models. Based on this scheme, we provide a mathematical derivation to explain why WNNM is more feasible than NNM. Moreover, due to the heuristical set of the weight, WNNM sometimes pops out error in the operation of SVD, and thus we present an adaptive weight setting scheme to avoid this error. We then employ the proposed scheme on two low-level vision tasks including image denoising and image inpainting. Experimental results demonstrate that WNNM is more feasible than NNM and the proposed scheme outperforms many current state-of-the-art methods.
Adapting a model to perform well on unforeseen data outside its training set is a common problem that continues to motivate new approaches. We demonstrate that application of batch normalization in the output layer, prior to softmax activation, resul
ts in improved generalization across visual data domains in a refined ResNet model. The approach adds negligible computational complexity yet outperforms many domain adaptation methods that explicitly learn to align data domains. We benchmark this technique on the Office-Home dataset and show that batch normalization is competitive with other leading methods. We show that this method is not sensitive to presence of source data during adaptation and further present the impact on trained tensor distributions tends toward sparsity.

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
nto UDA which is effective to align distributions between different domains. Previous bi-classifier adversarial learning methods only focus on the similarity between the outputs of two distinct classifiers. However, the similarity of the outputs cannot guarantee the accuracy of target samples, i.e., target samples may match to wrong categories even if the discrepancy between two classifiers is small. To challenge this issue, in this paper, we propose a cross-domain gradient discrepancy minimization (CGDM) method which explicitly minimizes the discrepancy of gradients generated by source samples and target samples. Specifically, the gradient gives a cue for the semantic information of target samples so it can be used as a good supervision to improve the accuracy of target samples. In order to compute the gradient signal of target samples, we further obtain target pseudo labels through a clustering-based self-supervised learning. Extensive experiments on three widely used UDA datasets show that our method surpasses many previous state-of-the-arts. Codes are available at https://github.com/lijin118/CGDM.
