To achieve good generalization in supervised learning, the training and testing examples are usually required to be drawn from the same source distribution. In this paper, we propose a method to relax this requirement in the context of logistic regression. Assuming D-p and D-a are two sets of examples drawn from two different distributions T and A (called concepts, borrowing a term from psychology), where D-a are fully labeled and D-p partially labeled, our objective is to complete the labels of D-p. We introduce an auxiliary variable mu for each example in D-a to reflect its mismatch with D-p. Under an appropriate constraint the mu s are estimated as a byproduct, along with the classifier. We also present an active learning approach for selecting the labeled examples in D-p. The proposed algorithm, called migratory logistic regression, is demonstrated successfully on simulated data as well as on real measured data of interest for unexploded ordnance cleanup.
