Cross Domain Classification

Cross-domain classification tackles the challenge of building machine learning models that accurately classify data from a target domain different from the domain(s) used for training. Current research focuses on improving model generalization across domains, employing techniques like adversarial training, knowledge distillation (especially from transformer models), and domain-invariant feature alignment using methods such as variational inference. These advancements are crucial for addressing real-world problems where labeled data is scarce or domain-specific, impacting fields ranging from medical image analysis and fake news detection to quantum state classification and software vulnerability identification. The ultimate goal is to create robust and adaptable models that perform well even when faced with significant data distribution shifts.
