We investigated domain adaptive semantic segmentation in foggy weather scenarios, which aims to enhance the utilization of unlabeled foggy data and improve the model's adaptability to foggy conditions. Current methods rely on clear images as references, jointly learning defogging and segmentation for foggy images. Despite making some progress, there are still two main drawbacks: (1) the coupling of segmentation and defogging feature representations, resulting in a decrease in semantic representation capability, and (2) the failure to leverage real fog priors in unlabeled foggy data, leading to insufficient model generalization ability. To address these issues, we propose a novel training framework, Decouple Defogging and Semantic learning, called D2SL, aiming to alleviate the adverse impact of defogging tasks on the final segmentation task. In this framework, we introduce a domain-consistent transfer strategy to establish a connection between defogging and segmentation tasks. Furthermore, we design a real fog transfer strategy to improve defogging effects by fully leveraging the fog priors from real foggy images. Our approach enhances the semantic representations required for segmentation during the defogging learning process and maximizes the representation capability of fog invariance by effectively utilizing real fog data. Comprehensive experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. |
