提出GALA方法,用聚类+局部选择提升多源主动域适应性能。

GALA: A GlobAl-LocAl Approach for Multi-Source Active Domain Adaptation

  • 先全局聚类再局部选样,兼顾类别差异与多源域变化。
  • 仅用1%目标域标注即逼近全监督上限性能。
  • 无需额外参数,可无缝接入现有域适应框架。

领域自适应(DA)通过利用源域知识来解决目标域任务。近期研究将该范式扩展至多源域自适应(MSDA),利用多个源域获取更丰富多样的可迁移信息。然而,基于适应的方法与完全监督学习之间仍存在显著性能差距。本文探索一种更实用且更具挑战性的设定——多源主动域适应(MS-ADA),通过有选择地获取目标域标注来进一步提升性能。其核心难点在于设计能同时处理类间多样性与多源域差异的样本选择标准。为此,我们提出简单有效的GALA策略(GALA),结合目标域样本的全局k均值聚类与聚类内局部选择准则,以互补方式应对上述问题。GALA为即插即用设计,可无缝集成到现有DA框架中,不引入任何额外可训练参数。在三个标准DA基准上的大量实验表明,GALA始终优于先前的主动学习与主动域适应方法,在仅使用1%目标域标注的情况下,性能接近完全监督上界。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Domain Adaptation (DA) provides an effective way to tackle target-domain tasks by leveraging knowledge learned from source domains. Recent studies have extended this paradigm to Multi-Source Domain Adaptation (MSDA), which exploits multiple source domains carrying richer and more diverse transferable information. However, a substantial performance gap still remains between adaptation-based methods and fully supervised learning. In this paper, we explore a more practical and challenging setting, named Multi-Source Active Domain Adaptation (MS-ADA), to further enhance target-domain performance by selectively acquiring annotations from the target domain. The key difficulty of MS-ADA lies in designing selection criteria that can jointly handle inter-class diversity and multi-source domain variation. To address these challenges, we propose a simple yet effective GALA strategy (GALA), which combines a global k-means clustering step for target-domain samples with a cluster-wise local selection criterion, effectively tackling the above two issues in a complementary manner. Our proposed GALA is plug-and-play and can be seamlessly integrated into existing DA frameworks without introducing any additional trainable parameters. Extensive experiments on three standard DA benchmarks demonstrate that GALA consistently outperforms prior active learning and active DA methods, achieving performance comparable to the fully-supervised upperbound while using only 1% of the target annotations.
