Though feature-alignment based Domain Adaptive Object Detection (DAOD) methods have achieved remarkable progress, they ignore the source bias issue, i.e., the detector tends to acquire more source-specific knowledge, impeding its generalization capabilities in the target domain. Furthermore, these methods face a more formidable challenge in achieving consistent classification and localization in the target domain compared to the source domain. To overcome these challenges, we propose a novel Distillation-based Sou…
