MUSDA: Multi-source Multi-modality Unsupervised Domain Adaptive 3D Object Detection for Autonomous Driving

With the advancement of autonomous driving, numerous annotated multi-modality datasets have become available. This presents an opportunity to develop domain-adaptive 3D object detectors for new environments without relying on labor-intensive manual annotations. However, traditional domain adaptation methods typically focus on a single source domain or a single modality, limiting their effectiveness in multi-source, multi-modality scenarios. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for multi-source, multi-modality unsupervised domain adaptation in 3D object detection for autonomous driving. Given multiple labeled source domains and one unlabeled target domain, our framework first introduces hierarchical spatially-conditioned (HSC) domain classifiers, which jointly align features from both camera and LiDAR modalities at two distinct levels for each source-target domain pair. To effectively leverage information from multiple source domains, we construct a prototype graph between each pair of domains. Based on this, we develop a prototype graph weighted (PGW) multi-source fusion strategy to aggregate predictions from multiple source detection heads. Experimental results on three widely used 3D object detection datasets - Waymo, nuScenes, and Lyft - demonstrate that our proposed framework effectively integrates information across both modalities and source domains, consistently outperforming state-of-the-art methods.
