Back to Source: Open-Set Continual Test-Time Adaptation via Domain Compensation

Test-Time Adaptation (TTA) aims to mitigate distributional shifts between training and test domains during inference time. However, existing TTA methods fall short in the realistic scenario where models face both continually changing domains and the simultaneous emergence of unknown semantic classes, a challenging setting we term Open-set Continual Test-Time Adaptation (OCTTA). The coupling of domain and semantic shifts often collapses the feature space, severely degrading both classification and out-of-distribution detection. To tackle this, we propose DOmain COmpensation (DOCO), a lightweight and effective framework that robustly performs domain adaptation and OOD detection in a synergi...
