Cross-view geo-localization (CVGL) aims at localizing a ground-level query by retrieving its corresponding match from a database of geo-tagged satellite images. Existing multi-modal CVGL methods lack a structured design in the fusion stage, limiting their ability to fully exploit the information fro
Vision-based autonomous driving has gained much attention due to its low costs and excellent performance.

Recent years have witnessed remarkable progress in world models, which primarily aim to capture the spatiotemporal correlations between an agent's actions and the evolving environment.

Novel view synthesis of urban scenes is essential for autonomous driving-related applications.
