Seeing Beyond: Extrapolative Domain Adaptive Panoramic Segmentation

Cross-domain panoramic semantic segmentation has attracted growing interest as it enables comprehensive 360° scene understanding for real-world applications. However, it remains particularly challenging due to severe geometric Field of View (FoV) distortions and inconsistent open-set semantics across domains. In this work, we formulate an open-set domain adaptation setting and propose the Extrapolative Domain Adaptive Panoramic Segmentation (EDA-PSeg) framework that trains on local perspective views and tests on full 360° panoramic images, explicitly tackling both geometric FoV shifts across domains and semantic uncertainty arising from previously unseen classes. To this end, we propose the Euler-Margin Attention (EMA), which introduces an angular margin in the Euler rotation space, thereby enhancing viewpoint-invariant semantic representation for panoramic geometry and improving generalization across novel viewpoints. Additionally, we design the Graph Matching Adapter (GMA), which builds high-order graph relations to align shared semantics across FoV shifts while effectively separating novel categories through structural adaptation. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets under camera-shift, weather-condition, and open-set scenarios demonstrate that EDA-PSeg achieves state-of-the-art performance, robust generalization to diverse viewing geometries, and resilience under varying environmental conditions. The source code will be released.
