Abstract: Semantic segmentation methods are used in au-tonomous car development to label pixels of road images (e.g. street, building, pedestrian, car, and so on). DeepLabv3+ and PSPNet are two of the best performance semantic segmentation methods according to Cityscapes benchmark. Although these methods achieved a very high performance with clear road images, yet these two methods are not tested under severe imaging conditions. In this work, we provided new Cityscapes datasets with severe imaging conditions: foggy, rainy, blurred, and noisy datasets. We evaluated the performance of DeepLabv3+ and PSPNet using our datasets. Our work demonstrated that although these models have high performance with clear images, they show very weak performance among the different imaging challenges. We proved that the road semantic segmentation methods must be evaluated using different kinds of severe imaging conditions to ensure the robustness of these methods in autonomous driving.

Keywords: Semantic segmentation; deep learning; cityscapes; DeepLabv3+; PSPNet
