Abstract
Despite advancements in deep learning, existing semantic segmentation models exhibit suboptimal performance under adverse weather conditions, such as fog or rain, whereas they perform well in clear weather conditions. To address this issue, much of the research has focused on making image or feature-level representations weather-independent. However, disentangling the style and content of images remains a challenge. In this work, we propose a novel fine-tuning method, 'freeze-n-update.' We identify a subset of model parameters that are weather-independent and demonstrate that by freezing these parameters and fine-tuning others, segmentation performance can be significantly improved. Experiments on a test dataset confirm both the effectiveness and practicality of our approach.
