The proposed research introduces a new distribution shift dataset, ImageNet-ES, which captures 202k images using a real camera in a controlled environment. This dataset aims to bridge the gap between conventional robustness benchmarks and real-world distribution shifts occurring during image acquisition. The study evaluates out-of-distribution (OOD) detection and model robustness on ImageNet-ES, demonstrating that existing OOD methods struggle with covariate shifts. Additionally, the research finds that incorporating environment and sensor variations into digital augmentations improves model robustness. Furthermore, the results suggest that controlling camera sensors can significantly enhance performance without increasing model size. The findings of this study may aid future research on robustness, OOD, and camera sensor control for computer vision.

The researchers created a new dataset called ImageNet-ES to help computers better understand images taken from real cameras in different environments. They took 202,000 pictures using a real camera in a controlled setting to create the dataset. The goal is to make computers more robust and able to handle unexpected changes in images. The study shows that existing methods for detecting when an image is unusual don’t work well with this new dataset. It also found that by adding variations in environment and camera settings, computer models can become more robust. Finally, the results suggest that controlling camera sensors can improve performance without increasing the complexity of the model.
