Unknown-Aware Domain Adversarial Learning for Open-Set Domain Adaptation
Open-Set Domain Adaptation (OSDA) assumes that a target domain contains unknown classes, which are not discovered in a source domain. Existing domain adversarial learning methods are not suitable for OSDA because distribution matching with $\textit{unknown}$ classes leads to negative transfer. Previous OSDA methods have focused on matching the source and the target distribution by only utilizing $\textit{known}$ classes.
Unknown-Aware Domain Adversarial Learning for Open-Set Domain Adaptation
Open-Set Domain Adaptation (OSDA) assumes that a target domain contains unknown classes, which are not discovered in a source domain. Existing domain adversarial learning methods are not suitable for OSDA because distribution matching with \textit{unknown} classes leads to negative transfer. Previous OSDA methods have focused on matching the source and the target distribution by only utilizing \textit{known} classes. However, this \textit{known} -only matching may fail to learn the target- \textit{unknown} feature space. Therefore, we propose Unknown-Aware Domain Adversarial Learning (UADAL), which \textit{aligns} the source and the target- \textit{known} distribution while simultaneously \textit{segregating} the target- \textit{unknown} distribution in the feature alignment procedure.
