Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Object detection based on deep learning has been enormously developed in recent years. However, applying detectors trained on a label-rich domain to an unseen domain results in performance drop due to the domain-shift. To deal with this problem, we propose a novel unsupervised domain adaptation framework to adapt the detector from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. In our proposed method, we utilize the image translation to generate interpolated images of source and target domains to fill in the large domain gap and facilitate a paired adaptation. We propose a hierarchical contrastive adaptation method between the original and interpolated domains to encourage the detectors to learn domain-invariant but discriminative features. To tackle the noises brought by image translation, we further propose a foreground attention reweighting for instance-aware adaptation. Experiments are carried out on 3 different scenarios of cross-domain detection and we achieve the state-of-the-art results against other approaches, showing the effectiveness of our proposed method.
