Federated Dataset Dictionary Learning for Multi-Source Domain Adaptation

In this article, we propose an approach for federated domain adaptation, a setting where distributional shift exists among clients and some have unlabeled data. The proposed framework, FedDaDiL, tackles the resulting challenge through dictionary learning of empirical distributions. In our setting, clients' distributions represent particular domains, and FedDaDiL collectively trains a federated dictionary of empirical distributions. In particular, we build upon the Dataset Dictionary Learning framework by designing collaborative communication protocols and aggregation operations. The chosen protocols keep clients' data private, thus enhancing overall privacy compared to its centralized counterpart. We empirically demonstrate that our approach successfully generates labeled data on the target domain with extensive experiments on (i) Caltech-Office, (ii) TEP, and (iii) CWRU benchmarks. Furthermore, we compare our method to its centralized counterpart and other benchmarks in federated domain adaptation.

Multi-Source Domain Adaptation through Dataset Dictionary Learning in Wasserstein Space

This paper seeks to solve Multi-Source Domain Adaptation (MSDA), which aims to mitigate data distribution shifts when transferring knowledge from multiple labeled source domains to an unlabeled target domain. We propose a novel MSDA framework based on dictionary learning and optimal transport. We interpret each domain in MSDA as an empirical distribution. As such, we express each domain as a Wasserstein barycenter of dictionary atoms, which are empirical distributions. We propose a novel algorithm, DaDiL, for learning via mini-batches: (i) atom distributions; (ii) a matrix of barycentric coordinates. Based on our dictionary, we propose two novel methods for MSDA: DaDil-R, based on the reconstruction of labeled samples in the target domain, and DaDiL-E, based on the ensembling of classifiers learned on atom distributions. We evaluate our methods in 3 benchmarks: Caltech-Office, Office 31, and CRWU, where we improved previous state-of-the-art by 3.15%, 2.29%, and 7.71% in classification performance. Finally, we show that interpolations in the Wasserstein hull of learned atoms provide data that can generalize to the target domain.

Multi-Source Domain Adaptation meets Dataset Distillation through Dataset Dictionary Learning

In this paper, we consider the intersection of two problems in machine learning: Multi-Source Domain Adaptation (MSDA) and Dataset Distillation (DD). On the one hand, the first considers adapting multiple heterogeneous labeled source domains to an unlabeled target domain. On the other hand, the second attacks the problem of synthesizing a small summary containing all the information about the datasets. We thus consider a new problem called MSDA-DD. To solve it, we adapt previous works in the MSDA literature, such as Wasserstein Barycenter Transport and Dataset Dictionary Learning, as well as DD method Distribution Matching. We thoroughly experiment with this novel problem on four benchmarks (Caltech-Office 10, Tennessee-Eastman Process, Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor, and Case Western Reserve University), where we show that, even with as little as 1 sample per class, one achieves state-of-the-art adaptation performance.

OpenDenoising: an Extensible Benchmark for Building Comparative Studies of Image Denoisers

Image denoising has recently taken a leap forward due to machine learning. However, image denoisers, both expert-based and learning-based, are mostly tested on well-behaved generated noises (usually Gaussian) rather than on real-life noises, making performance comparisons difficult in real-world conditions. This is especially true for learning-based denoisers which performance depends on training data. Hence, choosing which method to use for a specific denoising problem is difficult. This paper proposes a comparative study of existing denoisers, as well as an extensible open tool that makes it possible to reproduce and extend the study. MWCNN is shown to outperform other methods when trained for a real-world image interception noise, and additionally is the second least compute hungry of the tested methods. To evaluate the robustness of conclusions, three test sets are compared. A Kendall's Tau correlation of only 60% is obtained on methods ranking between noise types, demonstrating the need for a benchmarking tool.
