EGM-Det: Entropy-Guided Multimodal Adaptive Fusion for UAV RGB-IR Object Detection

Joint use of RGB and infrared (IR) imagery can improve UAV-view object detection, but most existing methods fuse multimodal features with static or fixed weights and therefore overlook spatially varying modality reliability. We propose EGM-Det, an entropy-guided multimodal adaptive fusion framework for RGB-IR object detection. EGM-Det employs a dual-stream architecture to preserve modality-specific representations and introduces an Entropy Offset Gate Fusion module for adaptive multi-scale fusion. The module derives shallow entropy priors from input intensity, local entropy, and cross-modal discrepancy, and uses them to guide local offset alignment and spatial-channel gated fusion. It therefore selectively aggregates reliable RGB and infrared cues instead of uniformly combining heterogeneous features. We further introduce cross-modal distillation to regularize the learned fusion gates and reduce fusion degradation. Each student branch extracts complementary knowledge from the cross-modality teacher branch matched to the main branch, while entropy-adaptive supervision emphasizes uncertain modality decisions. Experiments on DroneVehicle, LLVIP, and VEDAI demonstrate state-of-the-art performance across all three benchmarks; in particular, EGM-Det outperforms prior approaches by more than 10 percentage points on VEDAI.

Structure-Centric Robust Monocular Depth Estimation via Knowledge Distillation

Monocular depth estimation, enabled by self-supervised learning, is a key technique for 3D perception in computer vision. However, it faces significant challenges in real-world scenarios, which encompass adverse weather variations, motion blur, as well as scenes with poor lighting conditions at night. Our research reveals that we can divide monocular depth estimation into three sub-problems: depth structure consistency, local texture disambiguation, and semantic-structural correlation. Our approach tackles the non-robustness of existing self-supervised monocular depth estimation models to interference textures by adopting a structure-centered perspective and utilizing the scene structure characteristics demonstrated by semantics and illumination. We devise a novel approach to reduce over-reliance on local textures, enhancing robustness against missing or interfering patterns. Additionally, we incorporate a semantic expert model as the teacher and construct inter-model feature dependencies via learnable isomorphic graphs to enable aggregation of semantic structural knowledge. Our approach achieves state-of-the-art out-of-distribution monocular depth estimation performance across a range of public adverse scenario datasets. It demonstrates notable scalability and compatibility, without necessitating extensive model engineering. This showcases the potential for customizing models for diverse industrial applications.

OccupancyDETR: Using DETR for Mixed Dense-sparse 3D Occupancy Prediction

Visual-based 3D semantic occupancy perception is a key technology for robotics, including autonomous vehicles, offering an enhanced understanding of the environment by 3D. This approach, however, typically requires more computational resources than BEV or 2D methods. We propose a novel 3D semantic occupancy perception method, OccupancyDETR, which utilizes a DETR-like object detection, a mixed dense-sparse 3D occupancy decoder. Our approach distinguishes between foreground and background within a scene. Initially, foreground objects are detected using the DETR-like object detection. Subsequently, queries for both foreground and background objects are fed into the mixed dense-sparse 3D occupancy decoder, performing upsampling in dense and sparse methods, respectively. Finally, a MaskFormer is utilized to infer the semantics of the background voxels. Our approach strikes a balance between efficiency and accuracy, achieving faster inference times, lower resource consumption, and improved performance for small object detection. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method on the SemanticKITTI dataset, showcasing an mIoU of 14 and a processing speed of 10 FPS, thereby presenting a promising solution for real-time 3D semantic occupancy perception.

Lvio-Fusion: A Self-adaptive Multi-sensor Fusion SLAM Framework Using Actor-critic Method

State estimation with sensors is essential for mobile robots. Due to different performance of sensors in different environments, how to fuse measurements of various sensors is a problem. In this paper, we propose a tightly coupled multi-sensor fusion framework, Lvio-Fusion, which fuses stereo camera, Lidar, IMU, and GPS based on the graph optimization. Especially for urban traffic scenes, we introduce a segmented global pose graph optimization with GPS and loop-closure, which can eliminate accumulated drifts. Additionally, we creatively use a actor-critic method in reinforcement learning to adaptively adjust sensors' weight. After training, actor-critic agent can provide the system better and dynamic sensors' weight. We evaluate the performance of our system on public datasets and compare it with other state-of-the-art methods, which shows that the proposed method achieves high estimation accuracy and robustness to various environments. And our implementations are open source and highly scalable.
