arXiv:2410. 21361v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Domain adaptation has been extensively investigated in computer vision but still requires access to target data at the training time, which might be difficult to obtain in real-world autonomous driving scenarios, especially under rare or adverse conditions.

arXiv:2606. 09362v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Re-Identification (ReID) in autonomous driving is typically formulated as a visual matching problem, where observations of vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists are associated across time, frames, or camera views using learned appearance embeddings, often complemented by motion, geometric, or multimodal cues.

Volume and quality of datasets are crucial for deep learning model training, yet they are often constrained by availability and data acquisition costs. Synthetic data augmentation can extend existing datasets with realistic images, and the quality of these images is generally assessed through fidelity metrics such as FID, KID, IS, LPIPS and SSIM that measure structural or distributional similarity.

Currently, autonomous driving object detection models face significant data scarcity and generalization challenges when navigating complex Chinese rural traffic scenarios. To address these limitations, we propose a novel real-synthetic mixed object detection dataset tailored specifically for Chinese rural roads and systematically evaluate the performance of 13 mainstream detectors under different real-to-synthetic data ratios, thereby providing empirical evidence for model selection and data strategy design in rural autonomous driving scenarios.
arXiv:2603. 11417v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: End-to-end autonomous driving models are typically trained on multi-city datasets using supervised ImageNet-pretrained backbones, yet their ability to generalize to unseen cities remains largely unexamined.
