In multi-instance partial label learning (MIPL), each sample is a bag of multiple instances linked to a candidate label set containing one true and multiple false labels, yielding inexact supervision in both instance features and label space. However, existing works adopt decoupled approaches that f

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Semantic Segmentation (UDA-SS) has seen significant progress in recent years. Existing UDA-SS approaches mostly adopt a pseudo-labeling schema to adapt model in the target domain, but they often overlook the inherent long-tailed data distribution in segmentation. W
