arXiv:2607. 13891v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-object detection and tracking from noisy point clouds remain challenging in many data-scarce radar applications.
Multi-object detection and tracking from noisy point clouds remain challenging in many data-scarce radar applications. Current Bayesian trackers based on Poisson measurement models offer a training-free solution but struggle to achieve accuracy and efficiency under severe clutter, large object populations, and full-resolution Doppler point clouds.

The paper introduces RGBTR‑Motion, a new benchmark that synchronizes RGB, thermal, and radar data with dense moving‑instance masks and consistent identities for surveillance scenes. It also presents SAM‑Radar, a segmentation and tracking framework that fuses calibrated RGBT features with radar returns, using radar‑aware detection and motion supervision to reject clutter and maintain identity continuity during low visibility or occlusion. SAM‑Radar achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance, improving IoU, F1‑50, MOTA, HOTA, and IDF1 metrics over existing methods.
The review surveys 4D millimeter‑wave radar perception algorithms for autonomous driving, covering signal processing, object detection, semantic segmentation, motion estimation, occupancy prediction, and dynamic scene reconstruction. It organizes the field by perception tasks, discusses radar fundamentals, data representations, and quality‑enhancement methods, and compares radar‑only learning, multimodal fusion, and cross‑modal supervision. The paper also summarizes datasets, annotations, evaluation protocols, and outlines common challenges and future research directions.
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.

The paper introduces GrayTrack, a vehicle‑tracking system that fuses weak, indirect observations from third‑party sensors with sparse direct sensor data using a road‑constrained particle filter. Experiments on a CARLA‑Mininet‑WiFi pipeline show that the system achieves an F1 score of 0.989 for anonymous vehicle passages and reduces trajectory RMSE by 60.1% while cutting catastrophic track loss from 35.8% to 0.3%. These results demonstrate that incorporating indirect third‑party observations can substantially extend tracking capabilities when direct sensor access is limited.

arXiv:2607. 04541v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Camera-radar (CR) fusion is a practical sensing configuration for autonomous driving, but existing models are typically trained with task-specific supervision, limiting reusable representation learning.
The paper introduces the Physics-Aware Radar Transformer (PART), a radar-only detector that predicts moving-object existence, surface points, and ground-plane velocity using Doppler-aware query initialization and physics-guided cross-attention. PART achieves high class-agnostic performance on the nuScenes dataset, excelling in rare categories and adverse conditions such as night, rain, and occlusion. The model is lightweight, with only 1.1 million parameters, and its code and pretrained weights will be released publicly.
