contents A major technique for tackling unsupervised domain adaptation involves mapping data points from both the source and target domains into a shared embedding space. The mapping encoder to the embedding space is trained such that the embedding space becomes domain agnostic, allowing a classifier trained on the source domain to generalize well on the target domain. To further enhance the performance of unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA), we develop an additional technique which makes the internal distribution of the source domain more compact, thereby improving the model's ability to generalize in the target domain.We demonstrate that by increasing the margins between data representations for different classes in the embedding space, we can improve the model performance for UDA. To make the internal representation more compact, we estimate the internally learned multi-modal distribution of the source domain as Gaussian mixture model (GMM). Utilizing the estimated GMM, we enhance the separation between different classes in the source domain, thereby mitigating the effects of domain shift. We offer theoretical analysis to support outperofrmance of our method. To evaluate the effectiveness of our approach, we conduct experiments on widely used UDA benchmark UDA datasets. The results indicate that our method enhances model generalizability and outperforms existing techniques.
