Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Adverse Weather Semantic Segmentation (UDA-ASS) aims to transfer semantic knowledge from labeled normal-weather images to unlabeled adverse environments. Existing approaches implicitly assume that restoration and segmentation provide mutually beneficial guidance.
The paper introduces TSGPD-IR, a network that disentangles weather-induced artifacts from true thermal signals in infrared images. It uses weather semantics and regional degradation severity to generate adaptive prompts, estimate severity without manual labels, and select appropriate expert modules for restoration. This approach aims to reduce artifacts and preserve weak thermal details across varying weather conditions.
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.
The paper introduces Semi-LAR, a semi‑supervised framework for removing nighttime lens flares. It uses an adaptive pseudo‑label repository that refines supervision through quality assessment, momentum updates, and invalid label filtering. A flare‑aware contrastive loss treats flare‑contaminated inputs as negatives, encouraging representations that distinguish flare patterns while aligning with reliable pseudo targets.

Weather-Conditioned Depth Anything (DA‑W) is a new framework that enhances monocular depth estimation models, like the Depth Anything series, to perform robustly under adverse weather conditions such as fog, rain, snow, and low‑light. It achieves this by disentangling style from content: a Style Filter extracts weather‑specific embeddings from a curated mix of real and synthetic degradation data, which are then injected into the backbone via a lightweight, zero‑initialized adapter. The adapter is trained with pseudo‑label distillation and alignment, enabling a single unified model to adapt to diverse weather scenarios while preserving its generalization on clean data, and it achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance with an average 3.7% improvement in AbsRel on weather benchmarks.
