  In this paper, we present a method to utilize 2D-2D point matches between
images taken during different image conditions to train a convolutional neural
network for semantic segmentation. Enforcing label consistency across the
matches makes the final segmentation algorithm robust to seasonal changes. We
describe how these 2D-2D matches can be generated with little human interaction
by geometrically matching points from 3D models built from images. Two
cross-season correspondence datasets are created providing 2D-2D matches across
seasonal changes as well as from day to night. The datasets are made publicly
available to facilitate further research. We show that adding the
correspondences as extra supervision during training improves the segmentation
performance of the convolutional neural network, making it more robust to
seasonal changes and weather conditions.
