Exploiting Low-Rank Structure from Latent Domains for Domain GeneralizationZheng Xu, Wen Li, Li Niu, and Dong Xu School of Computer Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, SingaporeAbstract. In this paper, we propose a new approach for domain generalization by exploiting the low-rank structure from multiple latent source domains. Motivated by the recent work on exemplar-SVMs, we aim to train a set of exemplar classifiers with each classifier learnt by using only one positive training sample and all negative training samples. While positive samples may come from multiple latent domains, for the positive samples within the same latent domain, their likelihoods from each exemplar classifier are expected to be similar to each other. Based on this assumption, we formulate a new optimization problem by introducing the nuclear-norm based regularizer on the likelihood matrix to the objective function of exemplar-SVMs. We further extend Domain Adaptation Machine (DAM) to learn an optimal target classifier for domain adaptation. The comprehensive experiments for object recognition and action recognition demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach for domain generalization and domain adaptation.
