augmenting large datasets to have more edge case data for training [D]

Excerpt

I have this idea I'd like feedback on. most camera footage for training, is sunny daytime, because that's what cameras record most of the time. The edge cases models actually struggles with, like night, fog, rain or glare, are rare in the data - the idea is to augment it to have more of the rare cases for training So take a big labeled dataset A and adapt it to look like target B, where the model will actually run. Physics-based effects where possible (fog, rain, low-light noise), a constrained
