Adversarially Masked Video Consistency for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation

Xiaoyu Zhu, Junwei Liang, Po-Yao Huang, Alex Hauptmann

We study the problem of unsupervised domain adaptation for egocentric videos. We propose a transformer-based model to learn class-discriminative and domain-invariant feature representations. It consists of two novel designs. The first module is called Generative Adversarial Domain Alignment Network with the aim of learning domain-invariant representations. It simultaneously learns a mask generator and a domain-invariant encoder in an adversarial way. The domain-invariant encoder is trained to minimize the distance between the source and target domain. The masking generator, conversely, aims at producing challenging masks by maximizing the domain distance. The second is a Masked Consistency Learning module to learn class-discriminative representations. It enforces the prediction consistency between the masked target videos and their full forms. To better evaluate the effectiveness of domain adaptation methods, we construct a more challenging benchmark for egocentric videos, U-Ego4D. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on the Epic-Kitchen and the proposed U-Ego4D benchmark.
