## Abstract (arXiv)

LiDAR is an essential sensor for autonomous driving by collecting precise geometric information regarding a scene. %Exploiting this information for perception is interesting as the amount of available data increases. As the performance of various LiDAR perception tasks has improved, generalizations to new environments and sensors has emerged to test these optimized models in real-world conditions. This paper provides a novel dataset, ParisLuco3D, specifically designed for cross-domain evaluation to make it easier to evaluate the performance utilizing various source datasets. Alongside the dataset, online benchmarks for LiDAR semantic segmentation, LiDAR object detection, and LiDAR tracking are provided to ensure a fair comparison across methods. The ParisLuco3D dataset, evaluation scripts, and links to benchmarks can be found at the following website:https://npm3d.fr/parisluco3d
