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:2507. 18632v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Zero-shot domain adaptation is a method for adapting a model to a target domain without utilizing target domain image data.
arXiv:2509.22650v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Most existing approaches to referring segmentation achieve strong performance only through fine-tuning or by composing multiple pre-trained models,...
Semantically-Guided Domain Randomization (S‑GDR) is an annotation‑free pipeline that uses vision‑language model captioning of a small real reference set, diffusion‑based background synthesis, and mask‑based object composition to generate synthetic training data. In a high‑mix, low‑volume automotive detection benchmark, S‑GDR achieves a mAP50‑95 of 0.739 with only 200 synthetic images, outperforming a domain‑randomized render baseline and several other synthetic data methods under the same budget. These results suggest S‑GDR is a viable alternative for training visual perception systems when annotation, energy, and time resources are severely limited.
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.

arXiv:2607. 02269v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated immense promise in Spatio-Temporal Video Grounding (STVG).
The paper introduces set difference captioning for autonomous driving datasets, aiming to generate natural‑language descriptions of differences between two image subsets. It adapts a two‑stage approach to focus on object‑centric patches, enabling attribution of differences to specific objects or categories. A new benchmark, AD‑Diff Bench, is presented to evaluate this method, especially for sparse, real‑world differences, and the authors provide open‑weight models and code for reproducibility.

The paper introduces ICM, an Intra-Class Mixing Consistency framework for unsupervised domain adaptation in semantic segmentation under adverse weather. ICM mixes regions within the same image and semantic class to maintain realistic layouts, contrasting prior methods that combine across images or domains. On the Cityscapes → ACDC benchmark, ICM achieves 75.7% mIoU, surpassing previous state‑of‑the‑art results by 1.9 percentage points.
