摘要
Current state-of-the-art approaches in Source-Free Object Detection (SFOD) typically rely on Mean-Teacher self-labeling. However, domain shift often reduces the detector's ability to maintain strong object-focused representations, causing high-confidence activations over background clutter and unreliable pseudo-labels from the detection head. While prior works mainly refine the pseudo-labels, they overlook the underlying need to strengthen the feature space itself. We propose FALCON-SFOD (Foundation-Aligned Learning with Clutter Suppression and Noise Robustness), a framework designed to enhance object-focused adaptation under domain shift. It consists of two complementary components. SPAR (\underline S patial \underline P rior-\underline A ware \underline R egularization) leverages the generalization strength of vision foundation models to regularize the detector's feature space. Using class-agnostic binary masks derived from OV-SAM, SPAR promotes structured and foreground-focused activations by guiding the network toward object regions. IRPL (\underline I mbalance-aware Noise \underline R obust \underline P seudo-\underline L abeling) complements SPAR by promoting balanced and noise-tolerant learning under severe foreground-background imbalance. Guided by a theoretical analysis that connects these designs to tighter localization and classification error bounds, FALCON-SFOD achieves competitive performance across SFOD benchmarks. Our code is available in https://github.com/Sairam13001/FALCON-SFOD.
