Domain Generalisation for Object Detection
Domain generalisation aims to promote the learning of domain-invariant features while suppressing domain specific features, so that a model can generalise well on previously unseen target domains. This paper studies domain generalisation in the object detection setting. We propose new terms for handling both the bounding box detector and domain belonging, and incorporate them with consistency regularisation. This allows us to learn a domain agnostic feature representation for object detection, applicable to the problem of domain generalisation. The proposed approach is evaluated using four standard object detection datasets with available domain metadata, namely GWHD, Cityscapes, BDD100K, Sim10K and exhibits consistently superior generalisation performance over baselines.
