BOLT: Online Lightweight Adaptation for Preparation-Free Heterogeneous Cooperative Perception

BOLT is a lightweight plug‑and‑play module that enables preparation‑free heterogeneous cooperative perception by adapting neighboring features online through ego‑as‑teacher distillation. It requires only ego predictions, no ground‑truth labels, and uses high‑confidence ego features to align cross‑agent feature domains while allowing neighbors to contribute in low‑confidence regions. With just 0.9 M trainable parameters, BOLT boosts AP@50 by up to 32.3 points over unadapted fusion and consistently outperforms ego‑only results on DAIR‑V2X and OPV2V.

HeteroPROMPT: A Real-time and Privacy-Preserving Heterogeneous Collaborative Perception Framework

HeteroPROMPT is a real‑time, privacy‑preserving framework for heterogeneous collaborative perception in autonomous systems. It aligns features from diverse sensors and models into a unified ego‑centric space using modular prompts and lightweight tuning, while keeping encoders and fusion stacks frozen. The system employs a metadata‑free autoencoder for modality classification and routing, achieving higher average precision on OPV2V‑H and V2XSet datasets with far fewer trainable parameters.

Moving Beyond More Views: Redundancy-Aware Ego-Exo Fusion for Proficiency Estimation

The paper introduces a redundancy-aware fusion framework for EgoExo proficiency estimation, which integrates fine-grained motion cues from egocentric views with spatial context from exocentric views. It identifies multiview redundancy and overfitting as key challenges and proposes two modules—AdaMVS for adaptive view selection and VIB-GB for compressing redundant signals—to address them. Experiments on EgoExo-4D and EgoExo-Fitness show that the method learns to select informative views and fuse them effectively, achieving state‑of‑the‑art results.

P2Fusion: Prompt-based Progressive Infrared-Visible Image Fusion via Dual-Prior Distillation

Infrared-visible image fusion (IVIF) is pivotal for multimodal perception, yet reconciling the inherent information disparity between thermal and textural features remains a fundamental challenge. Existing prior-guided methods often rely on static constraints that induce optimization conflicts or utilize extrinsic semantic priors from large-scale foundation models (e.

VLAFlow: A Unified Training Framework for Vision-Language-Action Models via Co-training and Future Latent Alignment

arXiv:2607. 01586v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language-action models (VLAs) have recently advanced robotic manipulation, yet the effects of different robot-data pre-training paradigms remain difficult to compare because existing models often differ in architecture, data, action space, and evaluation protocol.

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.
