- 可解释分析揭示机制有效性,适合需要鲁棒泛化的工业场景。
多源域适应(MSDA)在工业模型泛化中具有重要意义。现有研究侧重于增强多域分布对齐,却忽略了类别级差异量化、噪声伪标签不可用以及源域可迁移性判别等问题,可能导致适应性能不佳。为此,本文提出原型聚合方法,在类别与域两个层面建模源-目标域间的差异。该方法基于一组原型(即代表性特征嵌入)实现域适应。设计基于相似度的策略量化各源域的迁移能力;在类别层面,根据可靠的靶域伪标签量化特定类别的跨域差异;在域层面,建立带有噪声伪标签的靶域样本与源域原型之间的分布对齐。类别与域层面的适应形成互补机制,提升预测准确性。在三个标准基准上的实验结果表明,本方法优于多数最先进方法。此外,通过分析实验获得的可解释结果,进一步阐释了所提方法的有效性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Multi-source domain adaptation (MSDA) plays an important role in industrial model generalization. Recent efforts on MSDA focus on enhancing multi-domain distributional alignment while omitting three issues, e.g., the class-level discrepancy quantification, the unavailability of noisy pseudo-label, and source transferability discrimination, potentially resulting in suboptimal adaption performance. Therefore, we address these issues by proposing a prototype aggregation method that models the discrepancy between source and target domains at the class and domain levels. Our method achieves domain adaptation based on a group of prototypes (i.e., representative feature embeddings). A similarity score-based strategy is designed to quantify the transferability of each domain. At the class level, our method quantifies class-specific cross-domain discrepancy according to reliable target pseudo-labels. At the domain level, our method establishes distributional alignment between noisy pseudo-labeled target samples and the source domain prototypes. Therefore, adaptation at the class and domain levels establishes a complementary mechanism to obtain accurate predictions. The results on three standard benchmarks demonstrate that our method outperforms most state-of-the-art methods. In addition, we provide further elaboration of the proposed method in light of the interpretable results obtained from the analysis experiments.
