- 在多样天气和真实转艺术数据集上显著提升检测性能
- 适合关注跨域鲁棒性与动态分布适应的研究者
本文聚焦单域泛化目标检测(Single-DGOD),旨在将源域训练的检测器迁移到多个未知目标域。现有方法多依赖离散数据增强或静态扰动来扩展数据多样性,但在真实场景中如光照、天气等变化是连续渐进的,离散增强难以捕捉特征分布的动态演变,限制了模型对细粒度跨域差异的感知。为此,我们提出液态时序特征演化(Liquid Temporal Feature Evolution, LTFE)方法,通过引入可控高斯噪声注入与多尺度高斯模糊模拟初始特征扰动,并结合时间建模与液态神经网络驱动的参数调整机制,生成自适应调制参数,实现跨域间的平滑连续适应。该方法有效捕获特征分布的渐进演化过程,动态调控适应路径,显著缩小源域与未知域之间的分布差距,提升模型泛化与鲁棒性。在Diverse Weather与Real-to-Art基准上均取得显著性能提升。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In this paper, we focus on Single-Domain Generalized Object Detection (Single-DGOD), aiming to transfer a detector trained on one source domain to multiple unknown domains. Existing methods for Single-DGOD typically rely on discrete data augmentation or static perturbation methods to expand data diversity, thereby mitigating the lack of access to target domain data. However, in real-world scenarios such as changes in weather or lighting conditions, domain shifts often occur continuously and gradually. Discrete augmentations and static perturbations fail to effectively capture the dynamic variation of feature distributions, thereby limiting the model's ability to perceive fine-grained cross-domain differences. To this end, we propose a new method, Liquid Temporal Feature Evolution, which simulates the progressive evolution of features from the source domain to simulated latent distributions by incorporating temporal modeling and liquid neural network-driven parameter adjustment. Specifically, we introduce controllable Gaussian noise injection and multi-scale Gaussian blurring to simulate initial feature perturbations, followed by temporal modeling and a liquid parameter adjustment mechanism to generate adaptive modulation parameters, enabling a smooth and continuous adaptation across domains. By capturing progressive cross-domain feature evolution and dynamically regulating adaptation paths, our method bridges the source-unknown domain distribution gap, significantly boosting generalization and robustness to unseen shifts. Significant performance improvements on the Diverse Weather dataset and Real-to-Art benchmark demonstrate the superiority of our method. Our code is available at https://github.com/2490o/LTFE.
