In this paper, two domains, which essentially limits their capability of we focus on semi-supervised domain adaptation and explic- knowledge transfer. To this end, many semi-supervised do- itly extend the applied range of unlabeled target samples into main adaptation methods are proposed within the classifier the combination of distribution alignment and adaptive clas- adaptation framework (Chen, Weinberger, and Blitzer 2011; sifier learning.
