Domain adaptation considers the problem of generalising a model learnt using data from a particular source domain to a different target domain. Often it is difficult to find a suitable single source to adapt from, and one must consider…

Domain adaptation (DA) aims to transfer knowledge from a label-rich source domain to a related but label-scarce target domain. The conventional DA strategy is to align the feature distributions of the two domains. Recently, increasing…
