Cross-domain few-shot learning (CDFSL) is proposed to transfer knowledge from large-scale source-domain datasets to downstream target-domain datasets with only a few training samples. However, Vision Transformer (ViT), as a strong backbone network to achieve many top performances, is still under-explored in the CDFSL task in its transferability against large domain gaps. In this paper, we find an interesting phenomenon of ViT in the CDFSL task: by simply multiplying a temperature (even as small as 0) to the attention in ViT blocks, the target-domain performance consistently increases, even though the attention map is downgraded to a uniform map. In this paper, we delve into this phenomenon for an interpretation. Through experiments, we interpret this phenomenon as a remedy for the ineffective target-domain attention caused by the query-key attention mechanism under large domain gaps. Based on it, we further propose a simple but effective method for the CDFSL task to boost ViT's transferability by resisting the learning of query-key parameters and encouraging that of non-query-key ones. Experiments on four CDFSL datasets validate the rationale of our interpretation and method, showing we can consistently outperform state-of-the-art methods.
