Cross-Domain Diffusion with Progressive Alignment for Efficient Adaptive Retrieval
- 从图扩散视角建模跨域迁移,模拟源到目标的动态适应过程
- 通过噪声鲁棒扩散识别低噪声聚类,提升目标域特征质量
- 分层Mixup实现渐进式对齐,适合高效无监督跨域检索场景
无监督高效领域自适应检索旨在将标注源域的知识迁移到无标注目标域,同时保持低存储开销和高检索效率。然而,现有方法通常无法处理目标域潜在噪声,且直接对齐高层特征,导致检索性能不佳。为此,我们提出一种新的跨域扩散渐进对齐方法(COUPLE)。该方法从图扩散视角重新审视无监督高效领域自适应检索,模拟跨域适应动态,实现稳定的目标域适应过程。首先,构建跨域关系图,利用噪声鲁棒的图流扩散模拟从源域到目标域的迁移动态,识别低噪声聚类。随后,基于图扩散结果进行判别性哈希码学习,有效利用目标域信息的同时降低噪声影响。此外,采用分层Mixup操作沿跨域随机游走路径进行渐进式域对齐。结合目标域判别性哈希学习与渐进式域对齐,COUPLE实现了高效的域自适应哈希学习。大量实验表明,COUPLE在多个基准上表现优异。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Unsupervised efficient domain adaptive retrieval aims to transfer knowledge from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain, while maintaining low storage cost and high retrieval efficiency. However, existing methods typically fail to address potential noise in the target domain, and directly align high-level features across domains, thus resulting in suboptimal retrieval performance. To address these challenges, we propose a novel Cross-Domain Diffusion with Progressive Alignment method (COUPLE). This approach revisits unsupervised efficient domain adaptive retrieval from a graph diffusion perspective, simulating cross-domain adaptation dynamics to achieve a stable target domain adaptation process. First, we construct a cross-domain relationship graph and leverage noise-robust graph flow diffusion to simulate the transfer dynamics from the source domain to the target domain, identifying lower noise clusters. We then leverage the graph diffusion results for discriminative hash code learning, effectively learning from the target domain while reducing the negative impact of noise. Furthermore, we employ a hierarchical Mixup operation for progressive domain alignment, which is performed along the cross-domain random walk paths. Utilizing target domain discriminative hash learning and progressive domain alignment, COUPLE enables effective domain adaptive hash learning. Extensive experiments demonstrate COUPLE's effectiveness on competitive benchmarks.
