Domain discrepancy is a key research problem in the field of deep domain adaptation. Two main strategies are used to reduce the discrepancy: the parametric method and the nonparametric method. Both methods have achieved good results in practical applications. However, research on whether the combination of the two can further reduce domain discrepancy has not been conducted. Therefore, in this paper, a deep transfer learning method based on automatic domain alignment and moment matching (DA-MM) is proposed. First, an automatic domain alignment layer is embedded in the front of each domain-specific layer of a neural network structure to preliminarily align the source and target domains. Then, a moment matching measure (such as MMD distance) is added between every domain-specific layer to map the source and target domain features output by the alignment layer to a common reproduced Hilbert space. The results of an extensive experimental analysis over several public benchmarks show that DA-MM can reduce the distribution discrepancy between the two domains and improve the domain adaptation performance.
