SGDet3D++ introduces a geometry‑grounded approach to 4D radar‑camera 3D object detection by explicitly conditioning evidence on evolving object hypotheses. It employs Anchor‑Grounded Semantic Retrieval, Geometry‑Consistent Anchor Refinement, and Doppler‑Verified Correspondence to filter and align semantic, geometric, and temporal cues before updating queries. The method achieves significant performance gains on OmniHD‑Scenes, ManTruckScenes, and TJ4DRadSet, with detailed ablations showing improvements in occlusion handling, target‑return purity, and motion consistency.

RLG-TPV introduces a multimodal Tri-Perspective View framework that fuses camera, radar, and training‑time LiDAR data for 3D object detection. It uses radar and LiDAR to guide a ray‑deformable attention lift, refining depth distributions and providing geometric supervision for side and front planes, while radar cross‑section awareness spreads evidence spatially. On nuScenes, the method attains 0.4981 mAP and 0.5959 NDS, improving orientation and velocity accuracy by about 32 % and 31 % over the CRN baseline.

The paper introduces the Physics-Aware Radar Transformer (PART), a radar-only detector that predicts moving-object existence, surface points, and ground-plane velocity using Doppler-aware query initialization and physics-guided cross-attention. PART achieves high class-agnostic performance on the nuScenes dataset, excelling in rare categories and adverse conditions such as night, rain, and occlusion. The model is lightweight, with only 1.1 million parameters, and its code and pretrained weights will be released publicly.

The paper introduces RGBTR‑Motion, a new benchmark that synchronizes RGB, thermal, and radar data with dense moving‑instance masks and consistent identities for surveillance scenes. It also presents SAM‑Radar, a segmentation and tracking framework that fuses calibrated RGBT features with radar returns, using radar‑aware detection and motion supervision to reject clutter and maintain identity continuity during low visibility or occlusion. SAM‑Radar achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance, improving IoU, F1‑50, MOTA, HOTA, and IDF1 metrics over existing methods.

The paper introduces an open‑vocabulary 3D object detection pipeline that uses a promptable segmentation model (SAM3) to generate instance masks from six surround‑view cameras. These masks are converted into metric 3D boxes, achieving up to 0.413 mAP/0.555 NDS without any training when supervised box geometry is borrowed at inference. The approach also improves a supervised LiDAR‑only detector by 0.034 mAP through a camera‑witness rule, demonstrating that measurement precision, not 2D detection, limits performance.

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.
VOIM (Voxel‑Grounded Online Instance Manager) is a training‑free system that builds open‑vocabulary 3D instance maps from RGB‑D or monocular RGB input by deferring label and instance decisions until sufficient soft evidence accumulates per voxel across views. Across four perception configurations on ScanNet++, VOIM outperforms the strongest online RGB‑D system, OVO‑SLAM, by 4.8–11.7 mIoU, and achieves 44.07 mIoU under a like‑for‑like protocol, winning all ten scenes. The method also runs unchanged on monocular RGB, matching baseline performance on Replica, and produces exportable occupancy grids that support free‑form instance queries.
