• Abstract: Road transport infrastructure is critical for safe, fast, economical, and reliable mobility within the whole country that is conducive to a productive society. However, roads tend to deteriorate over time due to natural causes in the environment and repeated traffic loads. Pavement Distress (PD) detection is essential in monitoring the current conditions of the public roads to enable targeted rehabilitation and preventive maintenance. Nonetheless, distress detection surveys are still done via manual inspection for developing countries such as the Philippines. This study proposed the use of deep learning for two ways of recording pavement distresses from 2D RGB images - detection and segmentation. YOLOv4 is used for pavement distress detection while DeepLabv3 is employed for pavement distress segmentation on a small dataset of pavement images in the Philippines. This study aims to provide a basis to potentially spark solutions in building a cheap, scalable, and automated end-to-end solution for PD detection in the country.

• Unsupervised Adaptation from Repeated Traversals for Autonomous Driving [54.59577283226982]
  Self-driving cars must generalize to the end-user's environment to operate reliably. One potential solution is to leverage unlabeled data collected from the end-users' environments. There is no reliable signal in the target domain to supervise the adaptation process. We show that this simple additional assumption is sufficient to obtain a potent signal that allows us to perform iterative self-training of 3D object detectors on the target domain.

  State-of-the-art 3D object detectors, based on deep learning, have shown promising accuracy but are prone to over-fit to domain idiosyncrasies. We propose a novel learning approach that drastically reduces this gap by fine-tuning the detector on pseudo-labels in the target domain. We show, on five autonomous driving datasets, that fine-tuning the detector on these pseudo-labels substantially reduces the domain gap to new driving environments.
