Adapting Vehicle Detector to Target Domain by Adversarial Prediction Alignment
While recent advancement of domain adaptation techniques is significant, most of methods only align a feature extractor and do not adapt a classifier to target domain, which would be a cause of performance degradation. We propose novel domain adaptation technique for object detection that aligns prediction output space. In addition to feature alignment, we aligned predictions of locations and class confidences of our vehicle detector for satellite images by adversarial training. The proposed method significantly improved AP score by over 5 satellite images.
