We propose a learning problem involving adapting a pre-trained source model to the target domain for classifying all classes that appeared in the source data, using target data that covers only a partial label space. This problem is…

In contrast to a standard closed-set domain adaptation task, partial domain adaptation setup caters to a realistic scenario by relaxing the identical label set assumption. The fact of source label set subsuming the target label set,…
