Identifying drug-related microbes may help us explore how the microbes affect the functions of drugs by promoting or inhibiting their effects. Most previous methods for the prediction of microbe-drug associations focused on integrating the attributes and topologies of microbe and drug nodes in Euclidean space. The heterogeneous network composed of microbes and drugs has a hierarchical structure, and the hyperbolic space is helpful for reflecting the structure.

The goal of Partial Domain Adaptation (PDA) is to transfer a neural network from a source domain (joint source distribution) to a distinct target domain (joint target distribution), where the source label space subsumes the target label space. To address the PDA problem, existing works have proposed to learn the marginal source weights to match the weighted marginal source distribution to the marginal target distribution. However, this is sub-optimal, since the neural network's target performance is concerned with the joint distribution disparity, not the marginal distribution disparity.

We address the problem of Multi-Source Domain Adaptation (MSDA), which trains a neural network using multiple labeled source datasets and an unlabeled target dataset, and expects the trained network to well classify the unlabeled target data. The main challenge in this problem is that the datasets are generated by relevant but different joint distributions. In this paper, we propose to address this challenge by estimating and minimizing the mutual information in the network latent feature space, which leads to the alignment of the source joint distributions and target joint distribution simultaneously.

Domain adaptation is concerned with the problem of generalizing a classification model to a target domain with little or no labeled data, by leveraging the abundant labeled data from a related source domain. The source and target domains possess different joint probability distributions, making it challenging for model generalization. In this article, we introduce domain neural adaptation (DNA): an approach that exploits nonlinear deep neural network to 1) match the source and target joint distributions in the network activation space and 2) learn the classifier in an end-to-end manner.

An intrinsic problem in domain adaptation is the joint distribution mismatch between the source and target domains. Therefore, it is crucial to match the two joint distributions such that the source domain knowledge can be properly transferred to the target domain. Unfortunately, in semi-supervised domain adaptation (SSDA) this problem still remains unsolved.

Domain adaptation addresses the learning problem where the training data are sampled from a source joint distribution (source domain), while the test data are sampled from a different target joint distribution (target domain). Because of this joint distribution mismatch, a discriminative classifier naively trained on the source domain often generalizes poorly to the target domain. In this paper, we therefore present a Joint Distribution Invariant Projections (JDIP) approach to solve this problem.

Domain adaptation tries to adapt a model trained from a source domain to a different but related target domain. Currently, prevailing methods for domain adaptation rely on either instance reweighting or feature transformation. Unfortunately, instance reweighting has difficulty in estimating the sample weights as the dimension increases, whereas feature transformation sometimes fails to make the transformed source and target distributions similar when the cross-domain discrepancy is large.
