Vehicle-Infrastructure Collaborative Perception (VICP) is pivotal for resolving occlusion in autonomous driving, yet the trade-off between communication bandwidth and feature redundancy remains a critical bottleneck. While intermediate…

Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have achieved impressive performance in multimodal tasks, but they still suffer from hallucinations, i.e., generating content that is grammatically accurate but inconsistent with visual inputs. In this…

Open-set semantic mapping enables language-driven robotic perception, but current instance-centric approaches are bottlenecked by context-depriving and computationally expensive crop-based feature extraction. To overcome this fundamental…

Depth estimation from images serves as the fundamental step of 3D perception for autonomous driving and is an economical alternative to expensive depth sensors like LiDAR. The temporal photometric constraints enables self-supervised depth…

No-reference point cloud quality assessment (NR-PCQA) aims to automatically predict the perceptual quality of point clouds without reference, which has achieved remarkable performance due to the utilization of deep learning-based models.…

This paper addresses the problem of vehicle-mounted camera localization by matching a ground-level image with an overhead-view satellite map. Existing methods often treat this problem as cross-view image retrieval, and use learned deep…

UV map estimation is used in computer vision for detailed analysis of human posture or activity. Previous methods assign pixels to body model vertices by comparing pixel descriptors independently, without enforcing global coherence or…

Autonomous driving requires 3D maps that provide accurate and up-to-date information about semantic landmarks. Due to the wider availability and lower cost of cameras compared with laser scanners, vision-based mapping solutions, especially…

High-definition (HD) mapping tasks, which perform lane detections and predictions, are extremely challenging due to non-ideal conditions such as view occlusions, distant lane visibility, and adverse weather conditions. Those conditions…

Bird's-Eye View (BEV) maps provide a structured, top-down abstraction that is crucial for autonomous-driving perception. In this work, we employ Cross-View Transformers (CVT) for learning to map camera images to three BEV's channels - road,…

Many tasks performed by autonomous vehicles such as road marking detection, object tracking, and path planning are simpler in bird's-eye view. Hence, Inverse Perspective Mapping (IPM) is often applied to remove the perspective effect from a…

High-fidelity reconstruction of driving scenes is crucial for autonomous driving. While recent feedforward 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) methods enable fast reconstruction, their per-pixel Gaussian prediction paradigm often suffers from…
