MATS: A novel multi-modality multi-task learning framework for 3D perception in autonomous driving

Multi-modality data from different sensors provides rich complementary information for 3D perception, becoming an essential component in reliable autonomous driving systems. Current research typically designs intricate and complex fusion strategies to integrate information from multimodal data on a unified bird's-eye-view (BEV) feature map for the joint learning of multiple perception tasks.

TGRIP: A Text-Guided Approach to Vehicle Instance Prediction in Autonomous Driving

Bird's-Eye View (BEV) end-to-end instance prediction has emerged as a robust paradigm for autonomous driving perception, effectively mitigating the error propagation inherent in traditional modular pipelines. However, current state-of-the-art approaches rely predominantly on geometric supervision, such as occupancy regression and optical flow, effectively treating scene agents as generic moving obstacles.
