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.

arXiv:2608. 07621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have recently achieved impressive performance for end-to-end autonomous driving, yet existing approaches are primarily designed for an individual single autonomous driving agent with limited support for cooperative perception, reasoning, and planning.

arXiv:2603. 06576v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) into autonomous driving has attracted growing interest for their strong reasoning and semantic understanding abilities, which are essential for handling complex decision-making and long-tail scenarios.
The paper proposes a label‑free 3D perception framework where roadside units (RSUs) act as unsupervised teachers for self‑driving cars. RSUs learn local 3D detectors from unlabeled data and broadcast predictions to passing vehicles, which use these as pseudo‑labels to train an ego‑centric detector. In a CARLA simulation, the method achieves 82.3% AP for vehicle detection, approaching a fully supervised upper bound of 94.4%, and demonstrates scalability and complementarity with existing ego‑centric approaches.
