Transferability to other detector architectures

Determine whether the performance ranking among Semantically-Guided Domain Randomization and the evaluated baseline methods transfers from YOLOv8 to other object-detector architectures, including transformer-based detectors.

Background

All experiments use YOLOv8 with default hyperparameters. The paper therefore does not establish whether the relative advantage of S-GDR depends on this detector choice or persists across different detector families, particularly transformer-based architectures.

References

Whether the observed ranking transfers to other architectures (e.g., transformer-based detectors) is not resolved by this evaluation.
