Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Inter-Session Re-Calibration of Ultrasound-Based HMIs.

Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) have gained popularity as they allow for an effortless and natural interaction between the user and the machine by processing information gathered from a single or multiple sensing modalities and transcribing user intentions to the desired actions. Their operability depends on frequent periodic re-calibration using newly acquired data due to their adaptation needs in dynamic environments, where test-time data continuously change in unforeseen ways, a cause that significantly contributes to their abandonment and remains unexplored by the Ultrasound-based (US-based) HMI community. In this work, we conduct a thorough investigation of Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) algorithms for the re-calibration of US-based HMIs during within-day sessions, which utilize unlabeled data for re-calibration.
