## Abstract (arXiv)

Semi-supervised domain adaptation is a technique to build a classifier for a target domain by modifying a classifier in another (source) domain using many unlabeled samples and a small number of labeled samples from the target domain. In this paper, we develop a semi-supervised domain adaptation method, which has robustness to class-imbalanced situations, which are common in medical image classification tasks. For robustness, we propose a weakly-supervised clustering pipeline to obtain high-purity clusters and utilize the clusters in representation learning for domain adaptation. The proposed method showed state-of-the-art performance in the experiment using severely class-imbalanced pathological image patches.
