HMS-SCP: Task-Oriented Multi-Scale Semantic Communication for V2X Cooperative Perception

The paper introduces HMS‑SCP, a hierarchical multi‑scale semantic‑aware cooperative perception framework for V2X communication. It uses a spatial importance predictor to select task‑relevant grid elements at multiple scales and maps them directly into complex‑valued symbols for joint source‑channel coding, achieving ultra‑low symbol rates and noise resilience. Experiments on OPV2V and DAIR‑V2X show that HMS‑SCP maintains high‑confidence far‑field detection with sub‑16 ms latency even under severe Rayleigh fading and extreme compression.

Cooperative Multi-Task Semantic Communication for Joint Classification and Regression Tasks

The paper extends the Cooperative Multi-Task Semantic Communication (CMT‑SemCom) framework to jointly perform heterogeneous classification and regression tasks on the Cityscapes dataset, using an InfoMax principle to handle mixed discrete and continuous semantic variables. It compares the new framework against independent single‑task training, conventional task‑agnostic digital transmission, and single‑encoder multi‑decoder SemCom, and studies how the capacity of the common unit affects joint task performance. Extensive evaluations show that CMT‑SemCom outperforms all benchmarks.

VeriFuse: Bounded Vision-Language Arbitration and Reason-Guided Refinement for Cooperative 3D Perception

VeriFuse is a bounded arbitration framework that integrates vision‑language models (VLMs) into vehicle‑infrastructure cooperative 3D perception. Each agent first generates independent detections, then VeriFuse creates a unified candidate pool of geometric proposals and cross‑source hypotheses. A frozen VLM selects among three actions—SELECT, REFINE, or REJECT—to resolve ambiguity and produce final 3D detections, achieving strong AP50/AP70 scores on the DAIR‑V2X dataset while keeping vehicle‑side BEV AP50 drop minimal under delay.

Cooperative Multi-Task Semantic Communication for Joint Classification and Regression Tasks

The paper extends the Cooperative Multi-Task Semantic Communication (CMT‑SemCom) framework to handle heterogeneous classification and regression tasks on the Cityscapes dataset. By incorporating the InfoMax principle, the system accommodates mixed discrete and continuous semantic variables, and it is benchmarked against single‑task training, task‑agnostic digital transmission, and single‑encoder multi‑decoder SemCom. Experiments show that CMT‑SemCom outperforms all baselines and provide insights into how the common unit capacity affects joint task performance.

Towards Collaborative Joint Perception and Prediction: Framework, Baseline Evaluation, and Deployment Perspectives

Connected Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) increasingly exploit Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication to exchange multi-source sensor information, enabling advanced Collaborative Perception (CP) capabilities. Extending beyond these capabilities, this work focuses on Collaborative Joint Perception and Prediction (Co-P&P), a paradigm that unifies CP with motion prediction to mitigate two persistent challenges: the accumulation of perception errors and visual occlusions.

CooperScene: Multi-Modal Cooperative Autonomy Benchmark with C-V2X Communication Characterization

Cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) enables cooperative perception, prediction, and planning beyond the field of view of individual agents. However, existing datasets often overlook the complexities of real-world deployment, such as limited communication bandwidth and its dynamics, heterogeneous sensing modalities, and scalability beyond a single cooperative partner.
