Visual domain adaptation addresses the problem of adapting the sample distribution of the source domain to the target domain, where the recognition task is intended but the data distributions are different. In this paper, we present a low-rank reconstruction method to reduce the domain distribution disparity. Specifically, we transform the visual samples in the source domain into an intermediate representation such that each transformed source sample can be linearly reconstructed by the samples of the target domain. Unlike the existing work, our method captures the intrinsic relatedness of the source samples during the adaptation process while uncovering the noises and outliers in the source domain that cannot be adapted, making it more robust than previous methods. We formulate our problem as a constrained nuclear norm and ℓ _{2, 1} norm minimization objective and then adopt the Augmented Lagrange …
