Unsupervised Video Domain Adaptation: A Disentanglement Perspective
share
Unsupervised video domain adaptation is a practical yet challenging task. In this work, for the first time, we tackle it from a disentanglement view. Our key idea is to disentangle the domain-related information from the data during the adaptation process. Specifically, we consider the generation of cross-domain videos from two sets of latent factors, one encoding the static domain-related information and another encoding the temporal and semantic-related information. A Transfer Sequential VAE (TranSVAE) framework is then developed to model such generation. To better serve for adaptation, we further propose several objectives to constrain the latent factors in TranSVAE. Extensive experiments on the UCF-HMDB, Jester, and Epic-Kitchens datasets verify the effectiveness and superiority of TranSVAE compared with several state-of-the-art methods. Code is publicly available at https://github.com/ldkong1205/TranSVAE.
