Accurately clustering high-dimensional measurements is vital for adequately analyzing scientific data. Deep learning machinery has remarkably improved clustering capabilities in recent years due to its ability to extract meaningful representations. In this work, we are given unlabeled samples from multiple source domains, and we aim to learn a shared classifier that assigns the examples to various clusters. Evaluation is done by using the classifier for predicting cluster assignments in a previously unseen domain. This setting generalizes the problem of unsupervised domain generalization to the case in which no supervised learning samples are given (completely unsupervised). Towards this goal, we present an end-to-end model and evaluate its capabilities on several multi-domain image datasets. Specifically, we demonstrate that our model is more accurate than schemes that require fine-tuning using samples from the target domain or some level of supervision.
