Zero-Shot Semantic Re-Identification for Autonomous Driving: A VLM Baseline Study

arXiv:2606. 09362v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Re-Identification (ReID) in autonomous driving is typically formulated as a visual matching problem, where observations of vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists are associated across time, frames, or camera views using learned appearance embeddings, often complemented by motion, geometric, or multimodal cues.

Evaluating Vision-Language Models as a Zero-Shot Learning Alternative to You Only Look Once and Optical Character Recognition for Nigerian License Plate Recognition

License Plate Recognition (LPR) systems are critical tools in traffic monitoring, security enforcement, and urban mobility management. Traditional LPR systems often rely on a multi-stage pipeline involving object detection using You Only Look Once (YOLO) and Optical Character Recognition (OCR), which suffer from limitations such as high resource demands, poor performance in unstructured environments, and the need for large annotated datasets.
