By using unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA), knowledge can be transferred from a label-rich source domain to a target domain that contains relevant information but lacks labels. Many existing UDA algorithms suffer from directly using raw images as input, resulting in models that overly focus on redundant information and exhibit poor generalization capability. To address this issue, we attempt to improve the performance of unsupervised domain adaptation by employing the Fourier method (FTF).Specifically, FTF is inspired by the amplitude of Fourier spectra, which primarily preserves low-level statistical information. In FTF, we effectively incorporate low-level information from the target domain into the source domain by fusing the amplitudes of both domains in the Fourier domain. Additionally, we observe that extracting features from batches of images can eliminate redundant information while retaining class-specific features relevant to the task. Building upon this observation, we apply the Fourier Transform at the data stream level for the first time. To further align multiple sources of data, we introduce the concept of correlation alignment. To evaluate the effectiveness of our FTF method, we conducted evaluations on four benchmark datasets for domain adaptation, including Office-31, Office-Home, ImageCLEF-DA, and Office-Caltech. Our results demonstrate superior performance., Comment: The paper contains significant errors and the experimental methodology is not rigorous. The experimental section and methodology need to be rewritten
