3D object detection is the backbone of perception for automated vehicles (AV) and broader intelligent transportation systems applications. Long-range detection is challenging because sensing evidence is sparse; yet this ``long-range'' scenario is routine in traffic.

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 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.

Cross-modal place recognition (CMPR) aims to identify the same location across heterogeneous sensing modalities, such as vision and LiDAR. Existing methods commonly bridge the modality gap using complex alignment modules, multi-stage training, or full fine-tuning of pretrained backbones.
arXiv:2602. 19349v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: LiDAR-camera fusion enhances 3D panoptic segmentation by leveraging camera images to complement sparse LiDAR scans, but it also introduces a critical failure mode.
