Original Abstract

This paper evaluates daytime to nighttime traffic image domain shift on Faster R-CNN and SSD based pedestrian and cyclist detectors. Daytime image trained detectors are applied on a newly compiled nighttime image dataset and their performance is evaluated against detectors trained on both daytime and nighttime images. Faster R-CNN based detectors proved relatively robust, but still clearly inferior to the models trained on nighttime images, the SSD based model proved noncompetitive. Approaches to the domain shift deterioration mitigation were proposed and future work outlined.
