The paper surveys one‑stage object detectors for autonomous driving, covering the evolution from early models like YOLOv1 and SSD to recent real‑time architectures such as YOLOv10 and anchor‑free detectors like FCOS and CenterNet. It compares these methods on design choices, feature‑fusion strategies, loss functions, deployment trade‑offs, and benchmark performance, while also summarizing datasets, evaluation metrics, open challenges, and future research directions. The survey emphasizes how one‑stage detectors balance speed, accuracy, efficiency, and robustness, noting the gap between benchmark results and dependable real‑world performance.

The paper proposes a modular training pipeline for zero‑shot cross‑city object detection that combines a multi‑dataset pre‑training strategy with class‑agnostic objectness distillation and a domain‑resilient augmentation stream featuring a Grayworld transformation. Applied to the RF‑DETR detector, the approach reduces cross‑city distribution gaps while using only 16 GB GPU memory, achieving a 24.29‑point mAP improvement and 1st place on the AI City Challenge Track 6 leaderboard. The authors provide code and data at the referenced GitHub repository.
