Abstract:

Adverse weather conditions can significantly degrade the video frames, causing existing video semantic segmentation methods to produce erroneous predictions. In this work, we target adverse weather conditions and introduce an end-to-end domain adaptation strategy that leverages a fusion block, temporal-spatial teacher-student learning, and a temporal weather degradation augmentation approach. The fusion block integrates temporal information from adjacent frames at the feature level, trained end-to-end, eliminating the need for pretrained optical flow, distinguishing our method from existing approaches. Our teacher-student approach involves two teachers: one focuses on exploring temporal information from adjacent frames, and the other harnesses spatial information from the current frame. Finally, we apply temporal weather degradation augmentation to consecutive frames to more accurately represent adverse weather degradations. Our method achieves a performance of 25.4 and 33.0 mIoU on the adaptation from VIPER and Synthia to MVSS, respectively, representing an improvement of 4.3 and 5.8 mIoU over the existing state-of-the-art method.
