This paper presents a robust fine-tuning method designed for pre-trained 3D point cloud models, to enhance feature robustness in downstream fine-tuned models. We highlight the limitations of current fine-tuning methods and the challenges of learning robust models. The proposed method, named Weight-Space Ensembles for Fine-Tuning then Linear Probing (WiSE-FT-LP), integrates the original pre-training and fine-tuning models through weight space integration followed by Linear Probing. This approach significantly enhances the performance of downstream fine-tuned models under distribution shifts, improving feature robustness while maintaining high performance on the target distribution. We apply this robust fine-tuning method to mainstream 3D point cloud pre-trained models and evaluate the quality of model parameters and the degradation of downstream task performance. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of WiSE-FT-LP in enhancing model robustness, effectively balancing downstream task performance and model feature robustness without altering the model structures.
