4D Radar Perception Algorithms for Autonomous Driving: A Review

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.

RLG-TPV: Radar- and LiDAR-Guided Tri-Perspective View Fusion for Camera-Radar 3D Object Detection

RLG-TPV introduces a multimodal Tri-Perspective View framework that fuses camera, radar, and training‑time LiDAR data for 3D object detection. It uses radar and LiDAR to guide a ray‑deformable attention lift, refining depth distributions and providing geometric supervision for side and front planes, while radar cross‑section awareness spreads evidence spatially. On nuScenes, the method attains 0.4981 mAP and 0.5959 NDS, improving orientation and velocity accuracy by about 32 % and 31 % over the CRN baseline.

Segment Any Motion with Radar: Robust Multimodal Moving-Object Segmentation and Tracking

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.
