SF-UDA-3D: Source-Free Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for LiDAR-Based 3D Object Detection
3D object detectors based only on LiDAR point clouds hold the state-of-the-art on modern street-view benchmarks. However, LiDAR-based detectors poorly generalize across domains due to domain shift. In the case of LiDAR, in fact, domain shift is not only due to changes in the environment and in the object appearances, as for visual data from RGB cameras, but is also related to the geometry of the point clouds (e.g., point density variations).
