In this work, we focus on domain adaptation for structured SVM (SSVM). We propose a cost-sensitive domain adaptation method for SSVM, namely COSS-SSVM. In particular, during the re-training of an adapted classifier based on target and source data, the idea that we explore consists in introducing a non-zero cost even for correctly classified source domain samples. Eventually, we aim to learn a more targetoriented classifier by not rewarding (zero loss) properly classified source-domain training samples. We assess the effectiveness of COSS-SSVM on multi-category object recognition. %K Domain Adaptation %K Pedestrian Detection %U http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/xrv2014.pdf %U http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/ICPR.2014.666 %P 3886-3891
