SGDet3D++: Geometry-Grounded Semantics for 4D Radar and Camera 3D Object Detection

4D radar complements dense image semantics with long-range geometry and radial motion, but existing radar--camera detectors largely solve \emph{where} to align the modalities while leaving \emph{whether} a piece of evidence supports an evolving object hypothesis implicit. An image token may describe an occluder, a nearby radar return may belong to another object, and a pose-aligned memory slot may carry incompatible motion. We formulate \emph{hypothesis-conditioned evidence grounding}, which separates candidate access from evidence use: semantic, geometric, or temporal evidence is filtered or conditioned by the evolving 3D state before updating the corresponding query. \sgdetpp{} instantiates this principle through Anchor-Grounded Semantic Retrieval (AGR), which conditions deformable image retrieval on pooled anchor-consistent radar support; Geometry-Consistent Anchor Refinement (GCR), which attentively aggregates individual associated returns; and Doppler-Verified Correspondence (DVC), which replaces history only when current radial motion contradicts it. \sgdetpp{} improves the strongest compared method by 3.82 mAP and 6.82 ODS on OmniHD-Scenes and by 6.82 mAP and 9.22 NDS on ManTruckScenes, while also leading the listed methods in the TJ4DRadSet test comparison. Mechanism-targeted evaluations show that AGR improves strict AP in every projected-occlusion bin, the yaw-aligned box gate raises target-return purity from 29.95\% to 58.87\%, and DVC preserves 96.11\% of motion-consistent history while retaining 75.90\% contradiction recall. Code will be released.

RoadOcc Learns When to Persist, Transport, or Refresh Memory for Roadside Occupancy Prediction

Fixed roadside cameras repeatedly observe a stable scene overlaid by sparse moving traffic. Temporal memory can recover weak observations, but reusing moving evidence at stale locations can corrupt occupancy predictions. Motion compensation addresses displacement, while reliance on the resulting history remains a separate learning problem. We introduce RoadOcc, which learns soft routing among fixed-coordinate history (\emph{Persist}), velocity-addressed history (\emph{Transport}), and current evidence (\emph{Refresh}). Motion state and class-consistent historical support supervise these source choices. Dynamic-aware cross-attention (DCA) updates candidate locations, multi-scale voxel velocity estimation (VVE) constructs transport addresses from multi-scale current--history correspondence, and velocity-guided dynamic sparse fusion (VDSF) combines routed evidence under fixed sparse-token budgets. On InfraOcc, RoadOcc reaches 65.29 mIoU and 32.37 dynamic mIoU, gains of 4.44 and 4.71 over STCOcc. Controlled address experiments show that VVE raises dynamic mIoU by 0.87 over fixed-coordinate reading. Across three seeds, supervised P/T/R adds 1.40 dynamic points over motion-corrected retrieval, while removing Refresh costs 0.32 points. Results from two transfer models, Occ3D-nuScenes, and longer intervals provide additional support. Code will be released.

RC-GeoCP: Geometric Consensus for 4D Radar-Camera Collaborative Perception

Collaborative perception (CP) extends sensing range through feature sharing, but most systems remain LiDAR-centric. Camera and 4D radar sensing combines dense semantics with lower-cost range--velocity measurements, yet exploiting their complementarity across agents remains difficult. Camera depth ambiguity produces spatially diffuse BEV evidence, while sparse transmission couples the choice of evidence to its subsequent contribution. Separate acquisition and aggregation objectives can assign conflicting source preferences to the retained evidence. We propose RC-GeoCP, connecting radar-grounded representation with persistent receiver--source attribution. Geometric Structure Rectification (GSR) uses radar-conditioned deformable sampling and gated calibration to construct grounded BEV features before communication. On these features, Uncertainty-Aware Communication (UAC) combines receiver demand with semantic confidence and radar support in a pre-delivery responsibility field that selects sparse support within fixed quotas. The Consensus-Driven Assembler (CDA) maps the same field into a bounded source mixture, carrying acquisition preferences into assembly. Persistent attribution coordinates spatial selection and source weighting across sparse transmission. Across two datasets and three aggregation backbones, RC-GeoCP consistently improves detection. Its sparse model retains 98.6%/96.6% of dense AP@0.7 at 10.88/4.95 MB per link. Code will be released.

4DR360: State Reasoning for Joint 3D Detection and Occupancy Prediction in 4D Radar-Camera Full-Scene Perception

Reliable autonomous driving requires full-scene perception that couples foreground objects with dense semantic layout. Recently, 4D millimeter-wave radar has emerged as a robust and affordable sensor, yet its sparse returns make radar-camera fusion necessary for comprehensive scene understanding. Existing radar-camera methods mainly optimize detection, while dual-task systems usually decode boxes and occupancy with limited interaction. To address this gap and advance radar-based multi-task learning, we propose \method, a 4D radar-camera framework for 360$^\circ$ full-scene perception, which models semantic occupancy as a persistent scene state rather than a terminal output. \method{} follows a cross-modal state reasoning paradigm, where the occupancy state is modeled and propagated through stages for coarse-to-fine feature aggregation. Specifically, State-guided BEV Enhancement (SBE) strengthens intra-frame BEV representation, while Doppler-guided Temporal Fusion (DTF) preserves state evidence over longer temporal horizons. Beyond the model, we further extend ManTruckScenes with satellite-map-based generated occupancy labels and pair it with OmniHD-Scenes in a unified cross-dataset detection-and-occupancy protocol. The resulting experiments cover accuracy, robustness, ablation, and efficiency under one radar-camera multi-task evaluation framework. Code and labels will be released upon acceptance.

SD4R: Sparse-to-Dense Learning for 3D Object Detection with 4D Radar

4D radar measurements offer an affordable and weather-robust solution for 3D perception. However, the inherent sparsity and noise of radar point clouds present significant challenges for accurate 3D object detection, underscoring the need for effective and robust point clouds densification. Despite recent progress, existing densification methods often fail to address the extreme sparsity of 4D radar point clouds and exhibit limited robustness when processing scenes with a small number of points. In this paper, we propose SD4R, a novel framework that transforms sparse radar point clouds into dense representations. SD4R begins by utilizing a foreground point generator (FPG) to mitigate noise propagation and produce densified point clouds. Subsequently, a logit-query encoder (LQE) enhances conventional pillarization, resulting in robust feature representations. Through these innovations, our SD4R demonstrates strong capability in both noise reduction and foreground point densification. Extensive experiments conducted on the publicly available View-of-Delft dataset demonstrate that SD4R achieves state-of-the-art performance.
