08:30 - 08:40Welcome and Agenda Presentation
08:40 - 09:25
Invited Talk 1: "Recent Advances in Domain Adaptation", Prof. Rama Chellappa
Over the last five years or so, methods for adapting features and classifiers to domain shifts have been developed. In this talk, I will present recent methods for domain adaptation using manifold and sparse representations as well as deep features. Remaining issues and challenges will also be discussed.

14:00 - 14:45Invited Talk 3: "Towards Principled Transfer Learning", Prof. Christoph Lampert
In contrast to ordinary supervised learning, the theoretical foundations of transfer learning are rather underdeveloped. The few results that do exist generally do not lead to practical algorithms and are therefore largely ignored by practitioners. In the talk I will report about the efforts in my group to develop transfer practical learning algorithms that nevertheless come with theoretical guarantees. As an example, I will discuss recent work on multi-task learning with unlabeled tasks.
14:50 - 15:35Invited Talk 4: "Unifying perspectives on knowledge sharing: From atomic to parameterised domains and tasks", Prof. Timothy Hospedales
In this talk I will present a flexible framework for thinking about and modelling knowledge sharing across tasks and domains. This framework encompasses various classic and recent methods as special cases and spans both shallow and deep models. In the process, I will revisit some of the basic assumptions we make in transfer learning including: What is a domain or task anyway? What new capabilities and new questions arise if we define these in different ways? I will answer some of these questions, and highlight others as open for future research.
