Scalable, all-weather place recognition increasingly relies on heterogeneous radar place recognition to bridge diverse hardware platforms. A notable application is matching queries from cost-effective 4D automotive radars against high-fidelity reference maps built by dense spinning radars.
arXiv:2607. 09629v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable autonomous driving requires full-scene perception that couples foreground objects with dense semantic layout.
arXiv:2606. 31609v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Radar sensors provide reliable perception under adverse weather and lighting conditions, but their sparse, noisy, and weakly semantic measurements make dense semantic segmentation challenging.
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.
arXiv:2409. 07558v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Rigid point cloud registration is a fundamental problem and highly relevant in robotics and autonomous driving.
arXiv:2606. 09634v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: 3D object detection is the backbone of perception for automated vehicles (AV) and broader intelligent transportation systems applications.
Sparse and noisy millimeter-wave radar point cloud observations often correspond to multiple plausible human poses, making deterministic pose estimation fundamentally ill-posed. Yet existing radar methods remain deterministic, collapsing this ambiguity into a single estimate.
arXiv:2607. 01983v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robust 3D object detection under adverse weather remains a critical hurdle for autonomous driving.
arXiv:2606. 28396v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar perception is limited by data scarcity: models trained on existing radar datasets fail to generalize to new objects, environments, and sensing trajectories.
arXiv:2608. 06612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The plethora of readily available geospatial data offers exciting opportunities to learn high quality representations of the planet, but the sheer size of the Earth Observations (EO), differing modalities, and different sensor types pose significant challenges in doing so.
Global visual localization of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using remote-sensing reference maps has attracted increasing attention. However, acquisition-time and imaging-platform differences between UAV and reference imagery induce substantial cross-domain appearance and viewpoint shifts, challenging robust six-degree-of-freedom (6-DoF) pose estimation.
arXiv:2606. 00119v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable work zone mapping is important for connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) to navigate safely and smoothly through work zone areas.
arXiv:2602. 11554v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: How far can 3D object detection go using 4D radar alone?
