• Abstract: In this paper we evaluate the impact of domain shift on human detection models trained on well known object detection datasets when deployed on data outside the distribution of the training set, as well as propose methods to alleviate such phenomena based on the available annotations from the target domain. Specifically, we introduce the OpenDR Humans in Field dataset, collected in the context of agricultural robotics applications, using the Robotti platform, allowing for quantitatively measuring the impact of domain shift in such applications. Furthermore, we examine the importance of manual annotation by evaluating three distinct scenarios concerning the training data: a) only negative samples, i.e., no depicted humans, b) only positive samples, i.e., only images which contain humans, and c) both negative and positive samples. Our results indicate that good performance can be achieved even when using only negative samples, if additional consideration is given to the training process. We also find that positive samples increase performance especially in terms of better localization. The dataset is publicly available for download at https://github.com/opendr-eu/datasets.

  We propose a downstream-pretext domain knowledge traceback (DOKT) method that traces the data interactions of downstream knowledge and pre-training guidance. DOKT consists of a traceback diversity indicator and a domain-based uncertainty estimator. Experiments conducted on ten datasets show that our model outperforms other state-of-the-art methods.

  This paper explores how changes in a data set influence the measured performance of a model. Using three publicly available data sets from the legal domain, we investigate how changes to their size, the train/test splits, and the human labelling accuracy impact the performance. The observed effects are surprisingly pronounced, especially when the per-class performance is considered.

  Deep learning-based person Re-IDentification (ReID) often requires a large amount of training data to achieve good performance. It appears that collecting more training data from diverse environments tends to improve the ReID performance. We propose an approach called Domain-Camera-Sample Dynamic network (DCSD) whose parameters can be adaptive to various factors.
