VLALight is a lightweight end‑to‑end vision‑language‑action framework designed for traffic signal control. It fuses multiple camera views and textual instructions to directly predict signal actions, avoiding intermediate image‑to‑text conversions. The model, with only 0.5 B parameters, achieves superior emergency vehicle service, cutting pooled waiting time by 21.1% compared to cascaded methods while running in real time on local hardware.
The paper proposes a method for identifying the current traffic situation of a vehicle using Bird's‑Eye‑View images. It combines object detection with semantic segmentation and a situation identification neural network built on the Cam2BEV projective transformation. The approach was validated in the CARLA simulator and on Cityscapes and nuScenes datasets, demonstrating that it can prioritize relevant sensor data for efficient distribution in connected vehicles.
arXiv:2606. 15749v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traffic scene understanding requires models to reason beyond object recognition, including lane topology, multi-view geometry, temporal evolution, and signal-phase semantics.
HERMES is a holistic end‑to‑end multimodal driving framework that incorporates long‑tail semantic knowledge into trajectory planning for autonomous vehicles. It uses a foundation‑model‑assisted annotation pipeline to build Long‑Tail Scene Context and Long‑Tail Planning Context, capturing hazard‑centric scene information, maneuver intent, and risk‑aware guidance. A Tri‑Modal Driving Module then fuses multi‑view visual observations, historical ego‑motion, and long‑tail semantic instructions to generate intent‑ and risk‑aware trajectories, achieving consistent performance gains on a large‑scale real‑world long‑tail driving benchmark.
