A PAC-Bayesian Approach for Domain Adaptation with Specialization to Linear Classifiers

We provide a first PAC-Bayesian analysis for domain adaptation (DA) which arises when the learning and test distributions differ. It relies on a novel distribution pseudodistance based on a disagreement averaging. Using this measure, we derive a PAC-Bayesian DA bound for the stochastic Gibbs classifier. This bound has the advantage of being directly optimizable for any hypothesis space. We spec...

PAC-Bayesian Theorems for Domain Adaptation with Specialization to Linear Classifiers PAC-Bayesian Theorems for Multiview Learning

Abstract In this paper, we provide two main contributions in PAC-Bayesian theory for domain adaptation where the objective is to learn, from a source distribution, a well-performing majority vote on a different target distribution. On the one hand, we propose an improvement of the previous approach proposed by Germain et al. (2013), that relies on a novel distribution pseudodistance based on a ...

A New PAC-Bayesian Perspective on Domain Adaptation

We study the issue of domain adaptation: we want to adapt a model from a source distribution to a target one. We focus on models expressed as a majority vote. Our main contribution is a novel theoretical analysis of the target risk that is formulated as an upper bound expressing a trade-off between only two terms: (i) the voters’ joint errors on the source distribution, and (ii) the voters’ dis...

PAC-Bayesian Generic Chaining

There exist many different generalization error bounds for classification. Each of these bounds contains an improvement over the others for certain situations. Our goal is to combine these different improvements into a single bound. In particular we combine the PAC-Bayes approach introduced by McAllester [1], which is interesting for averaging classifiers, with the optimal union bound provided ...
