Domain Adaptation: Challenges, Methods, Datasets, and Applications

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) trained on one dataset (source domain) do not perform well on another set of data (target domain), which is different but has similar properties as the source domain. Domain Adaptation (DA) strives to alleviate this problem and has great potential in its application in practical settings, real-world scenarios, industrial applications and many data domains. Various DA methods aimed at individual data domains have been reported in the last few years; however, there is no comprehensive survey that encompasses all these data domains, focuses on the datasets available, the methods relevant to each domain, and importantly the applications and challenges. To that end, this survey paper…
