This paper presents a novel method for improving the robustness of machine learning (ML) perception models used in autonomous systems. To address weak spots in these models, particularly in challenging Operational Design Domains (ODDs), the authors introduce a customized physics-based augmentation approach to generate realistic training data that simulates diverse ODD scenarios. The proposed methodology aims to enhance model performance and robustness in environments with difficult conditions, such as lens flare at night or objects reflected in a wet street.

This paper makes machine learning better for self-driving cars by creating fake data that’s really good at teaching the car to see in tricky situations. Autonomous vehicles need to be able to handle things like nighttime driving when there’s glare on the road, or seeing through puddles of water. To get them to work well in these conditions, the authors came up with a new way to train their machine learning models using fake data that’s designed to mimic real-life scenarios.
