Post Fusion Bird's Eye View Feature Stabilization for Robust Multimodal 3D Detection

The paper introduces Post Fusion Stabilizer (PFS), a lightweight module that refines intermediate bird’s‑eye view (BEV) feature maps in existing camera‑LiDAR fusion detectors. PFS stabilizes feature statistics under domain shift, suppresses regions affected by sensor degradation, and adaptively restores weakened cues via residual correction, acting as a near‑identity transformation. On the nuScenes benchmark, PFS achieves state‑of‑the‑art robustness, notably improving camera dropout robustness by +1.2% and low‑light performance by +4.4% mAP while adding only 3.3 M parameters.

LiteViLNet: Lightweight Vision-LiDAR Fusion Network for Efficient Road Segmentation

LiteViLNet is a lightweight RGB‑geometry fusion network for road segmentation that uses a MobileNetV3 RGB encoder and a tiny depth‑wise‑separable geometry encoder. Its multi‑scale fusion module enhances modality‑specific features, performs cross‑modal interaction, and applies adaptive gating, while a depth‑wise large‑kernel bridge expands contextual support with minimal overhead. The U‑Net‑style decoder is trained with deep supervision, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance on KITTI and ORFD benchmarks and running at up to 68.73 FPS on a Jetson Orin NX with TensorRT FP16.
