REFNet++: Multi-Task Efficient Fusion of Camera and Radar Sensor Data in Bird's-Eye Polar View

A realistic view of the vehicle's surroundings is generally offered by camera sensors, which is crucial for environmental perception. Affordable radar sensors, on the other hand, are becoming invaluable due to their robustness in variable weather conditions. However, because of their noisy output and reduced classification capability, they work best when combined with other sensor data. Specifically, we address the challenge of multimodal sensor fusion by aligning radar and camera data in a unified domain, prioritizing not only accuracy, but also computational efficiency. Our work leverages the raw range-Doppler (RD) spectrum from radar and front-view camera images as inputs. To enable effective fusion, we employ a variational encoder-decoder architecture that learns the transformation of front-view camera data into the Bird's-Eye View (BEV) polar domain. Concurrently, a radar encoder-decoder learns to recover the angle information from the RD data that produce Range-Azimuth (RA) features. This alignment ensures that both modalities are represented in a compatible domain, facilitating robust and efficient sensor fusion. We evaluated our fusion strategy for vehicle detection and free space segmentation against state-of-the-art methods using the RADIal dataset.

Towards Data-Efficient Video Pre-training with Frozen Image Foundation Models

Video foundation models achieve strong performance across many video understanding tasks, but typically require large-scale pre-training on massive video datasets, resulting in substantial data and compute costs. In contrast, modern image foundation models already provide powerful spatial representations. This raises an important question: can competitive video models be built by reusing these spatial representations and pre-training only for temporal reasoning? We take initial steps toward exploring a lightweight training paradigm that freezes a pre-trained image foundation model and trains only a recurrent temporal module to process streaming video. By reusing an image foundation model as a spatial encoder, this approach could significantly reduce the amount of video data and compute required compared to end-to-end video pre-training. In this work, we explore the feasibility of this approach before investing in computing for video pre-training. Our empirical findings across multiple video understanding tasks suggest that strong temporal performance can emerge without large-scale video pre-training, motivating future work on recurrent video foundation models obtained by pre-training a temporal module on top of a frozen image foundation model.

Training Semantic Segmentation on Heterogeneous Datasets

We explore semantic segmentation beyond the conventional, single-dataset homogeneous training and bring forward the problem of Heterogeneous Training of Semantic Segmentation (HTSS). HTSS involves simultaneous training on multiple heterogeneous datasets, i.e. datasets with conflicting label spaces and different (weak) annotation types from the perspective of semantic segmentation. The HTSS formulation exposes deep networks to a larger and previously unexplored aggregation of information that can potentially enhance semantic segmentation in three directions: i) performance: increased segmentation metrics on seen datasets, ii) generalization: improved segmentation metrics on unseen datasets, and iii) knowledgeability: increased number of recognizable semantic concepts. To research these benefits of HTSS, we propose a unified framework, that incorporates heterogeneous datasets in a single-network training pipeline following the established FCN standard. Our framework first curates heterogeneous datasets to bring them into a common format and then trains a single-backbone FCN on all of them simultaneously. To achieve this, it transforms weak annotations, which are incompatible with semantic segmentation, to per-pixel labels, and hierarchizes their label spaces into a universal taxonomy. The trained HTSS models demonstrate performance and generalization gains over a wide range of datasets and extend the inference label space entailing hundreds of semantic classes.

Self-Supervised Road Layout Parsing with Graph Auto-Encoding

Aiming for higher-level scene understanding, this work presents a neural network approach that takes a road-layout map in bird's-eye-view as input, and predicts a human-interpretable graph that represents the road's topological layout. Our approach elevates the understanding of road layouts from pixel level to the level of graphs. To achieve this goal, an image-graph-image auto-encoder is utilized. The network is designed to learn to regress the graph representation at its auto-encoder bottleneck. This learning is self-supervised by an image reconstruction loss, without needing any external manual annotations. We create a synthetic dataset containing common road layout patterns and use it for training of the auto-encoder in addition to the real-world Argoverse dataset. By using this additional synthetic dataset, which conceptually captures human knowledge of road layouts and makes this available to the network for training, we are able to stabilize and further improve the performance of topological road layout understanding on the real-world Argoverse dataset. The evaluation shows that our approach exhibits comparable performance to a strong fully-supervised baseline.

Cityscapes-Panoptic-Parts and PASCAL-Panoptic-Parts datasets for Scene Understanding

In this technical report, we present two novel datasets for image scene understanding. Both datasets have annotations compatible with panoptic segmentation and additionally they have part-level labels for selected semantic classes. This report describes the format of the two datasets, the annotation protocols, the merging strategies, and presents the datasets statistics. The datasets labels together with code for processing and visualization will be published at https://github.com/tue-mps/panoptic_parts.

Semantic Foreground Inpainting from Weak Supervision

Semantic scene understanding is an essential task for self-driving vehicles and mobile robots. In our work, we aim to estimate a semantic segmentation map, in which the foreground objects are removed and semantically inpainted with background classes, from a single RGB image. This semantic foreground inpainting task is performed by a single-stage convolutional neural network (CNN) that contains our novel max-pooling as inpainting (MPI) module, which is trained with weak supervision, i.e., it does not require manual background annotations for the foreground regions to be inpainted. Our approach is inherently more efficient than the previous two-stage state-of-the-art method, and outperforms it by a margin of 3% IoU for the inpainted foreground regions on Cityscapes. The performance margin increases to 6% IoU, when tested on the unseen KITTI dataset. The code and the manually annotated datasets for testing are shared with the research community at https://github.com/Chenyang-Lu/semantic-foreground-inpainting.
