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.
3D object detection is the backbone of perception for automated vehicles (AV) and broader intelligent transportation systems applications. Long-range detection is challenging because sensing evidence is sparse; yet this ``long-range'' scenario is routine in traffic.
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.
