Domain Adaptation is the task of adapting models across domains. This is motivated by the challenge where the test and training datasets fall from different data distributions due to some factor. Domain adaptation aims to build machine learning models that can be generalized into a target domain and dealing with the discrepancy across domain distributions.

Description from the archive archive 2025-07-28.
Benchmarks archive 2025-07-28
58 leaderboard tables shown for this task, 58 with rows (a “benchmark” on this site is a table with at least one row, as on /sota), ordered by row count. “Best model” is the first row in the archive's own order at snapshot; nothing is re-ranked here and metric direction is not recorded in the archive. PwC's Trend sparklines are not in the archive, so that column is omitted. 10 shown of 58 until expanded.
Syntology column: samples harvested from the paper's repositories and executed on synthesized fixtures; “ran” is not a correctness claim and does not order the table. A dash means no Syntology record for that paper, not a recorded non-run. Read from the graph 2026-09-24.
Libraries

Syntology lines on 29 of the papers shown; no Syntology record for the others (a paper without an arXiv id cannot be joined to the graph, and absence from the graph layer is not a recorded non-run). “Ran” means the sample executed on a synthesized fixture, not that the paper's result was reproduced.
