A Strategy for Label Alignment in Deep Neural Networks
<|reference_start|>A Strategy for Label Alignment in Deep Neural Networks: One recent research demonstrated successful application of the label alignment property for unsupervised domain adaptation in a linear regression settings. Instead of regularizing representation learning to be domain invariant, the research proposed to regularize the linear regression model to align with the top singular vectors of the data matrix from the target domain. In this work we expand upon this idea and generalize it to the case of deep learning, where we derive an alternative formulation of the original adaptation algorithm exploiting label alignment suitable for deep neural network. We also perform experiments to demonstrate that our approach achieves comparable performance to mainstream unsupervised domain adaptation methods while having stabler convergence.
