Domain-Division based Progressive Learning for Source-Free Domain Adaptation

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

With growing privacy and portability concerns, source-free domain adaptation requires only a source pre-trained model and an unlabeled target domain, allowing for effective adaptation to the target data. Most existing self-training methods focus on selecting and exploiting samples with reliable predictions, often neglecting others.

Joint Distribution Alignment for Universal Domain Adaptation

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.

Pre-train to Gain: Robust Learning Without Clean Labels

The paper proposes a method that first pre‑trains a feature extractor on the target dataset using in‑domain self‑supervised learning (SSL) without labels, then performs standard supervised training on the same noisy dataset. This two‑stage approach eliminates the need for a clean label subset and consistently improves classification accuracy and label‑error detection across synthetic and real‑world noise, especially as noise rates increase. Experiments show that the method matches or surpasses ImageNet and DinoV2 pre‑training, particularly under high noise conditions.
