Adversarial-Learned Loss for Domain Adaptation is a method for domain adaptation that combines adversarial learning with self-training. Specifically, the domain discriminator has to produce different corrected labels for different domains, while the feature generator aims to confuse the domain discriminator. The adversarial process finally leads to a proper confusion matrix on the target domain. In this way, ALDA takes the strengths of domain-adversarial learning and self-training based methods.
Domain Adaptive Ensemble Learning, or DAEL, is an architecture for domain adaptation. The model is composed of a CNN feature extractor shared across domains and multiple classifier heads each trained to specialize in a particular source domain. Each such classifier is an expert to its own domain and a non-expert to others. DAEL aims to learn these experts collaboratively so that when forming an ensemble, they can leverage complementary information from each other to be more effective for an unseen target domain. To this end, each source domain is used in turn as a pseudo-target-domain with its own expert providing supervisory signal to the ensemble of non-experts learned from the other sources. For unlabeled target data under the UDA setting where real expert does not exist, DAEL uses pseudo-label to supervise the ensemble learning.
