- Abstract summary: We introduce a challenging dataset named CODA that exposes this critical problem of vision-based detectors.
The performance of standard object detectors trained on large-scale autonomous driving datasets significantly drops to no more than 12.8% in mAR.
We experiment with the state-of-the-art open-world object detector and find that it also fails to reliably identify the novel objects in CODA.

- Abstract: Contemporary deep-learning object detection methods for autonomous driving
usually assume prefixed categories of common traffic participants, such as
pedestrians and cars. Most existing detectors are unable to detect uncommon
objects and corner cases (e.g., a dog crossing a street), which may lead to
severe accidents in some situations, making the timeline for the real-world
application of reliable autonomous driving uncertain. One main reason that
impedes the development of truly reliably self-driving systems is the lack of
public datasets for evaluating the performance of object detectors on corner
cases. Hence, we introduce a challenging dataset named CODA that exposes this
critical problem of vision-based detectors. The dataset consists of 1500
carefully selected real-world driving scenes, each containing four object-level
corner cases (on average), spanning 30+ object categories. On CODA, the
performance of standard object detectors trained on large-scale autonomous
driving datasets significantly drops to no more than 12.8% in mAR. Moreover, we
experiment with the state-of-the-art open-world object detector and find that
it also fails to reliably identify the novel objects in CODA, suggesting that a
robust perception system for autonomous driving is probably still far from
reach. We expect our CODA dataset to facilitate further research in reliable
detection for real-world autonomous driving. Our dataset will be released at

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.
