Advancing Off-Road Autonomous Driving: The Large-Scale ORAD-3D Dataset and Comprehensive Benchmarks

ICRA 2026poster

A major bottleneck in off-road autonomous driving research lies in the scarcity of large-scale, high-quality datasets and benchmarks. To bridge this gap, we present ORAD-3D, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the largest dataset specifically curated for off-road autonomous driving. ORAD-3D cove…

MECoT: Markov Emotional Chain-of-Thought for Personality-Consistent Role-Playing

ACL 2025finding

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown remarkable capabilities in role-playing dialogues, yet they often struggle to maintain emotionally consistent and psychologically plausible character personalities. We present MECoT (Markov Emotional Chain-of-Thought), a framework that enhances LLMs’ ability t…

ROD: RGB-Only Fast and Efficient Off-Road Freespace Detection

ICRA 2025

Off-road freespace detection is more challenging than on-road scenarios because of the blurred boundaries of traversable areas. Previous state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods employ multi-modal fusion of RGB images and LiDAR data. However, due to the significant increase in inference time when calculating

A Safe and Efficient Timed-Elastic-Band Planner for Unstructured Environments

IROS 2024poster

In unstructured environments with complex obstacles and obscure road boundaries, the local planner faces more severe challenges in terms of safety and real-time performance. In order to fulfill these emerging requirements, we propose a novel Timed-Elastic-Band approach for unstructured environments,…

TeFF: Tracking-enhanced Forgetting-free Few-shot 3D LiDAR Semantic Segmentation

IROS 2024

In autonomous driving, 3D LiDAR plays a crucial role in understanding the vehicle’s surroundings. However, the newly emerged, unannotated objects presents few-shot learning problem for semantic segmentation. This paper addresses the limitations of current few-shot semantic segmentation by exploiting
