Bridging the Generalization Gap in Adverse Weather Segmentation: A Training Recipe Perspective 文章

arXiv:2605.27962v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper describes our approach for the 8th UG2+ Workshop (CVPR 2026) Track~2, which targets semantic segmentation of outdoor scenes degraded by five weather conditions: blur, darkness, snow, haze, and glare. A central challenge we observe is a severe generalization gap -- models that perform well on the validation set often collapse on the test set. For instance, SegFormer-B5 drops 16.1 mIoU points from validation to test, suggesting that model capacity alone is insufficient for robustness. We investigate whether a carefully designed training recipe, rather than architectural complexity, can address this gap. Starting from a pre-trained SegMAN-S backbone, we systematically study the effects of domain-adaptive fine-tuning, multi-source data mixing, scene-balanced sampling, and synthetic degradation augmentation. Our final system achieves 59.9\% mIoU on the official test set while maintaining a validation-test gap of only 6.
