Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated substantial promise in spatial understanding. Existing works typically incorporate prior knowledge extracted from a pre-trained foundation model to further enhance the spatial awareness of MLLMs.
Cross-modal learning, i. e.
Understanding driver emotion and state is critical for the next generation of intelligent in-cabin systems that ensure safety and enhance human-vehicle interaction. However, existing public datasets for in-cabin affective computing are largely limited to visual modalities and rarely include conversational information, making it difficult to capture the linguistic and interactive cues underlying driver emotion.
