This work presents the Large Depth Completion Model (LDCM), a simple, effective, and robust framework for single-view metric depth estimation with sparse observations. Without relying on complex architectural designs, LDCM generates metric-accurate dense depth maps in one large transformer. It outpe…
We present MoP-UAV, a new benchmark for UAV-based cross-view object geo-localization guided by multi-modal prompts. MoP-UAV supports fine-grained object-level cross-view localization under diverse prompt modalities, including natural language, bounding boxes, and click points. It offers potential fo
4D millimeter-wave radar is a promising sensing modality for autonomous driving, yet effective 3D object detection from 4D radar and monocular images remains challenging. Existing fusion approaches either rely on instance proposals lacking global context or dense BEV grids constrained by rigid struc
This work presents DCFlow, a novel self-supervised cross-modal flow estimation framework that integrates a decoupled optimization strategy and a cross-modal consistency constraint. Unlike previous unsupervised approaches that implicitly learn flow estimation solely from appearance similarity, we int…
This work presents SGCDet, a novel multi-view indoor 3D object detection framework based on adaptive 3D volume construction. Unlike previous approaches that restrict the receptive field of voxels to fixed locations on images, we introduce a geometry and context aware aggregation module to integrate…
Previous deep image registration methods that employ single homography, multi-grid homography, or thin-plate spline often struggle with real scenes containing depth disparities due to their inherent limitations. To address this, we propose an Exponential-Decay Free-Form Deformation Network (EDFFDNet…
4D millimeter-wave radar plays a pivotal role in autonomous driving due to its cost-effectiveness and robustness in adverse weather. However, the application of 4D radar point cloud in 3D perception tasks is hindered by its inherent sparsity and noise. To address these challenges, we propose LGDD, a
We introduce LOcc, an effective and generalizable framework for open-vocabulary occupancy (OVO) prediction. Previous approaches typically supervise the networks through coarse voxel-to-text correspondences via image features as intermediates or noisy and sparse correspondences from voxel-based model…
LiDAR-based global localization is an essential component of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), which helps loop closure and re-localization. Current approaches rely on ground-truth poses obtained from GPS or SLAM odometry to supervise network training. Despite the great success of these
4D millimeter-wave radar has gained attention as an emerging sensor for autonomous driving in recent years. However, existing 4D radar and camera fusion models often fail to fully exploit complementary information within each modality and lack deep cross-modal interactions. To address these issues,
We propose a novel unsupervised cross-modal homography estimation learning framework, named Split Supervised Homography estimation Network (SSHNet). SSHNet reformulates the unsupervised cross-modal homography estimation into two supervised sub-problems, each addressed by its specialized network: a h…
Radar has gained much attention in autonomous driving due to its accessibility and robustness. However, its standalone application for depth perception is constrained by issues of sparsity and noise. Radar-camera depth estimation offers a more promising complementary solution. Despite significant pr
Vision-based Semantic Scene Completion (SSC) has gained much attention due to its widespread applications in various 3D perception tasks. Existing sparse-to-dense approaches typically employ shared context-independent queries across various input images, which fails to capture distinctions among the…

Guided depth completion aims to recover dense depth maps by propagating depth information from the given pixels to the remaining ones under the guidance of RGB images. However, most of the existing methods achieve this using a large number of iterative refinements or stacking repetitive blocks. Due…
Place recognition is a key module for long-term SLAM systems. Current LiDAR-based place recognition methods usually use representations of point clouds such as unordered points or range images. These methods achieve high recall rates of retrieval, but their performance may degrade in the case of vie…
Place recognition is an important technique for autonomous cars to achieve full autonomy since it can provide an initial guess to online localization algorithms. Although current methods based on images or point clouds have achieved satisfactory performance, localizing the images on a large-scale po…
We propose the Recurrent homography estimation framework using Homography-guided image Warping and Focus transformer (FocusFormer), named RHWF. Both being appropriately absorbed into the recurrent framework, the homography-guided image warping progressively enhances the feature consistency and the a…
To obtain clean images with salient structures from noisy observations, a growing trend in current denoising studies is to seek the help of additional guidance images with high signal-to-noise ratios, which are often acquired in different spectral bands such as near infrared. Although previous guide…

Different from previous works that achieve iterative refinement by network cascading or untrainable IC-LK iterator, the iterator of IHN has tied weights and is completely trainable. IHN achieves state…
