ParisLuco3D: A high-quality target dataset for domain generalization of LiDAR perception

LiDAR is a sensor system that supports autonomous driving by gathering precise geometric information about the scene. Exploiting this information for perception is interesting as the amount of available data increases. As the quantitative performance of various perception tasks has improved, the focus has shifted from source-to-source perception to domain adaptation and domain generalization for perception. These new goals require access to a large variety of domains for evaluation. Unfortunately, the various annotation strategies of data providers complicate the computation of cross-domain performance based on the available data This paper provides a novel dataset, specifically designed for cross-domain evaluation to make it easier to evaluate the performance of various source datasets. Alongside the dataset, a flexible online benchmark is provided to ensure a fair comparison across methods.
