Literature Review Title: A survey on heterogeneous transfer learning 
Chapter Title:  DAMA 
1. Abstract of Cited Paper (BIB001):  We propose a family of learning algorithms based on a new form of regularization that allows us to exploit the geometry of the marginal distribution. We focus on a semi-supervised framework that incorporates labeled and unlabeled data in a general-purpose learner. Some transductive graph learning algorithms and standard methods including support vector machines and regularized least squares can be obtained as special cases. We use properties of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces to prove new Representer theorems that provide theoretical basis for the algorithms. As a result (in contrast to purely graph-based approaches) we obtain a natural out-of-sample extension to novel examples and so are able to handle both transductive and truly semi-supervised settings. We present experimental evidence suggesting that our semi-supervised algorithms are able to use unlabeled data effectively. Finally we have a brief discussion of unsupervised and fully supervised learning within our general framework. 
2. Abstract of Cited Paper (BIB002):  Manifold alignment has been found to be useful in many fields of machine learning and data mining. In this paper we summarize our work in this area and introduce a general framework for manifold alignment. This framework generates a family of approaches to align manifolds by simultaneously matching the corresponding instances and preserving the local geometry of each given manifold. Some approaches like semi-supervised alignment and manifold projections can be obtained as special cases. Our framework can also solve multiple manifold alignment problems and be adapted to handle the situation when no correspondence information is available. The approaches are described and evaluated both theoretically and experimentally, providing results showing useful knowledge transfer from one domain to another. Novel applications of our methods including identification of topics shared by multiple document collections, and biological structure alignment are discussed in the paper. 
3. Abstract of Cited Paper (BIB003):  We propose a manifold alignment based approach for heterogeneous domain adaptation. A key aspect of this approach is to construct mappings to link different feature spaces in order to transfer knowledge across domains. The new approach can reuse labeled data from multiple source domains in a target domain even in the case when the input domains do not share any common features or instances. As a pre-processing step, our approach can also be combined with existing domain adaptation approaches to learn a common feature space for all input domains. This paper extends existing manifold alignment approaches by making use of labels rather than correspondences to align the manifolds. This extension significantly broadens the application scope of manifold alignment, since the correspondence relationship required by existing alignment approaches is hard to obtain in many applications.

Literature Review:
Wang and Mahadevan BIB004 proposed an HDA solution called Domain Adaption using Manifold Alignment (DAMA). This method uses a manifold alignment based approach and is an extension from their previous framework BIB003 . Standard manifold alignment techniques require a small amount of cross-domain correspondence relationships to learn mapping functions, but these correspondences are often difficult to obtain and sometimes require manual translation which can be highly expensive. DAMA makes use of the label information rather than correspondence to align the input domains. This HDA approach learns mapping functions to project multiple source domains and the target into a latent common subspace. When creating the subspace, each input domain is treated as a manifold and the mapping function is constructed for each input domain while preserving the topology of each one. Instances with the same label are matched and forced to be neighbors while those with different labels are separated. To do this, each manifold is represented by a Laplacian matrix which models the similarity of instances with others who share the same label. These are then joined into a larger matrix representation which serves as a joint manifold for the union of all input domains. Since this joint manifold has features from all the input domains, a dimensionality reduction process is performed to remove redundant features and is solved through a generalized eigenvalue decomposition. Once this common subspace is derived, one can combine this approach with other existing DA approaches as to support multiple source domains. The DA approach used in this work to apply on this subspace is built in two stages. First, a linear regression model is trained using the labeled source data in the latent subspace. Then manifold regularization BIB002 is applied with a second linear regression model. This is then aggregated with the first to minimize prediction error for the labeled instances in the target. In other words, the first regression model uses the data from the source while the second adapts the first model to the target domain. During manifold regularization, unlabeled target instances are used to reduce overfitting issues caused by having very limited labeled target data. Experiments were performed on text document categorization and ranking tasks. The proposed method was compared with Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) BIB001 , correspondence-based manifold alignment BIB003 , and manifold regularization BIB002 (target only). The results showed the proposed method performed the best followed by manifold regularization, correspondence-based manifold alignment, and CCA being the worst performing in this case.
