New method tackles synthetic-to-real gap in autonomous driving

Researchers have introduced ASTAD, a novel task focused on Asymmetric Style Transfer for Autonomous Driving. This method addresses the challenge of adapting synthetic data for autonomous driving systems by transferring styles from unlabeled real-world images to labeled synthetic images. The proposed ASTModel framework achieves this without requiring semantic labels for the real-world references, significantly improving downstream perception utility and structural fidelity while offering a faster inference speed. AI

IMPACT This research could accelerate the deployment of robust autonomous driving systems by improving the generalization of models trained on synthetic data.

    ASTAD: Asymmetric Style Transfer for Synthetic-to-Real Adaptation in Autonomous Driving

    arXiv:2606.29286v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic data mitigates the data scarcity problem in autonomous driving perception. However, the synthetic-to-real gap leads to performance degradation, hindering real-world model generalization. Although current methods leverage d…
