## Overview
As acquiring pixel-wise annotations of real-world images for semantic
segmentation is a costly process, a model can instead be trained with more
accessible synthetic data and adapted to real images without requiring their
annotations. This process is studied in **Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA)**.
Even though a large number of methods propose new UDA strategies, they
are mostly based on outdated network architectures. In this work, we
particularly study the influence of the network architecture on UDA performance
and propose **DAFormer**, a network architecture tailored for UDA. It consists of a
Transformer encoder and a multi-level context-aware feature fusion decoder.
DAFormer is enabled by three simple but crucial training strategies to stabilize the
training and to avoid overfitting the source domain: While the
**Rare Class Sampling** on the source domain improves the quality of pseudo-labels
by mitigating the confirmation bias of self-training towards common classes,
the **Thing-Class ImageNet Feature Distance** and a **Learning Rate Warmup** promote
feature transfer from ImageNet pretraining.
DAFormer significantly improves
the state-of-the-art performance **by 10.8 mIoU for GTA→Cityscapes**
and **by 5.4 mIoU for Synthia→Cityscapes** and enables learning even
difficult classes such as train, bus, and truck well.

The strengths of DAFormer, compared to the previous state-of-the-art UDA method
ProDA, can also be observed in qualitative examples from the Cityscapes
validation set.


DAFormer can be further **extended to domain generalization** lifting the requirement
of access to target images. Also in domain generalization,
DAFormer significantly improves the state-of-the-art performance by **+6.5 mIoU**.
