Correlation alignment and the maximum mean discrepancy are two widely used distribution-matching frameworks for unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA). However, high variance in these losses has been shown to undermine their effectiveness in minibatch optimisation settings.
The paper introduces Joint Distribution Alignment for Universal Domain Adaptation (JAUA), a new algorithm designed for scenarios where source and target domains have differing label spaces. It provides a theoretical upper bound on generalization error for Universal Domain Adaptation and proposes aligning joint distributions using Chi‑Square divergence, complemented by a progressive pseudo‑labeling strategy. Experiments on six public image datasets show JAUA outperforms existing methods in handling Universal Domain Adaptation challenges.

arXiv:2607. 28125v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Numerous unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) algorithms exist, but for clinical practice, selecting the best-suited one along with proper hyperparameters often remains unclear, as the unlabeled deployment (target) domain prevents direct evaluation.
