PanoBench: A Panoptic Occupancy Prediction Benchmark for Autonomous Driving

PanoBench is a new camera‑centric benchmark for panoptic occupancy prediction that unifies 3D geometry, semantics, and instance identities across synthetic and real‑world driving scenes. It combines three datasets—PanoBench‑CarlaOcc, PanoBench‑nuScenes, and PanoBench‑KITTI360—through canonical interfaces and unified evaluation protocols, providing multi‑resolution annotations with persistent instance identities. The benchmark introduces a novel reconstruction pipeline for real‑world data, a unified valid‑mask protocol, and analyses of observation fidelity, geometric completeness, spatial continuity, and temporal consistency, while also benchmarking methods on semantic, panoptic, and 4D occupancy forecasting. whyItMatters":"PanoBench addresses the scarcity of instance‑aware annotations in panoptic occupancy research by offering comprehensive, high‑quality annotations and evaluation protocols that enable more robust development and comparison of autonomous driving perception methods."

RoadOcc Learns When to Persist, Transport, or Refresh Memory for Roadside Occupancy Prediction

RoadOcc is a new method for roadside occupancy prediction that learns to route information among three memory sources: Persist (fixed-coordinate history), Transport (velocity-addressed history), and Refresh (current evidence). It employs dynamic-aware cross‑attention, multi‑scale voxel velocity estimation, and velocity‑guided dynamic sparse fusion to combine these sources efficiently. On the InfraOcc dataset, RoadOcc achieves 65.29 mIoU and 32.37 dynamic mIoU, outperforming the previous STCOcc baseline by significant margins.

Out-of-Distribution Semantic Occupancy Prediction

The paper introduces Out-of-Distribution Semantic Occupancy Prediction, a task that focuses on detecting unknown objects in 3D voxel space for autonomous driving. It proposes Realistic Anomaly Augmentation to create two new datasets, VAA-KITTI and VAA-KITTI-360, and presents the OccOoD framework, which uses Cross‑Space Semantic Refinement to improve OoD detection while maintaining semantic occupancy accuracy. Experiments show OccOoD achieves an AuROC of 65.50% and an AuPRCr of 31.83% within a 1.2 m radius, demonstrating strong generalization to real‑world urban scenes.
