Abstract

In cross-modal unsupervised domain adaptation, a model trained on source-domain data (e.g., synthetic) is adapted to target-domain data (e.g., real-world) without access to target annotation. Previous methods seek to mutually mimic cross-modal outputs in each domain, which enforces a class probability distribution that is agreeable in different domains. However, they overlook the complementarity brought by the heterogeneous fusion in cross-modal learning. In light of this, we propose a novel fusion-then-distillation (FtD++) method to explore cross-modal positive distillation of the source and target domains for 3D semantic segmentation. FtD++ realizes distribution consistency between outputs not only for 2D images and 3D point clouds but also for source-domain and augment-domain. Specially, our method contains three key ingredients. First, we present a model-agnostic feature fusion module to generate the cross-modal fusion representation for establishing a latent space. In this space, two modalities are enforced maximum correlation and complementarity. Second, the proposed cross-modal positive distillation preserves the complete information of multi-modal input and combines the semantic content of the source domain with the style of the target domain, thereby achieving domain-modality alignment. Finally, cross-modal debiased pseudo-labeling is devised to model the uncertainty of pseudo-labels via a self-training manner. Extensive experiments report state-of-the-art results on several domain adaptive scenarios under unsupervised and semi-supervised settings.
