Abstract
To enhance the execution of growth strategies for SMEs under data sparsity and domain shift, this study combines domain adaptation with few-shot learning to identify growth bottlenecks and generate actionable strategies through model optimization. Practical case studies validate the model's applicability and adaptability across domains. By integrating feature alignment and reweighting mechanisms, the strategy significantly improves performance in long-tail categories and cross-domain transferability.
