Stereo 4D Radar for 3D Object Detection: Integrating Geometric Alignment and Absolute Velocity Estimation

Four-dimensional (4D) Radar is a powerful sensing modality capable of detecting surrounding three-dimensional (3D) objects under diverse weather conditions and providing Doppler-based motion information. However, raw 4D Radar signals contain significant clutter from road surfaces, guardrails, and surrounding vehicles, along with multipath-induced ghost reflections and the receiver's inherent noise floor. Consequently, preprocessing algorithms designed to remove such invalid measurements often make the Radar data excessively sparse. Moreover, the Doppler measurements provided by 4D Radar describe only the radial component of an object's velocity, limiting their ability to recover the full motion state. In this paper, we introduce a stereo 4D Radar-based 3D object detection framework that exploits the geometric disparity between left and right Radars to estimate the absolute velocity of objects and achieve more robust perception through the fusion of their complementary features. The effectiveness of the proposed framework is validated on our in-house stereo 4D Radar dataset, demonstrating performance gains of 8.82 points in AP 3D and 9.0 points in AP BEV over state-of-the-art mono 4D Radar baselines. These results demonstrate that absolute velocity estimation combined with stereo geometry-aware feature fusion leads to substantial improvements in 3D object detection.

DNC-IMM: Early Lane-Change Intention Recognition via Neural Calibration Based on Driving Context Information

Early recognition of lane-change intention is essential for proactive decision-making in autonomous driving and advanced driver assistance systems. This paper proposes a Dual Neural-Calibrated Interacting Multiple Model (DNC-IMM) that improves adaptability to driving context while preserving the probabilistic structure and interpretability of a conventional IMM. The proposed method encodes driving-context information, including target-vehicle motion, gaps to surrounding vehicles, and relative velocities, with a neural network that calibrates both the transition-probability matrix and measurement likelihoods. The final intention is determined from the calibrated IMM mode posterior rather than from a separate direct classifier. Experiments on the highD dataset demonstrate that the proposed method reliably recognizes lane-change intentions before lane crossing and provides particularly strong performance at the earlier 2-3 s prediction horizons.

Efficient On-Chip Implementation of 4D Radar-Based 3D Object Detection on Hailo-8L

4D radar has attracted attention in autonomous driving due to its ability to enable robust 3D object detection even under adverse weather conditions. To practically deploy such technologies, it is essential to achieve real-time processing within low-power embedded environments. Addressing this, we present the first on-chip implementation of a 4D radar-based 3D object detection model on the Hailo-8L AI accelerator. Although conventional 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures require 5D inputs, the Hailo-8L only supports 4D tensors, posing a significant challenge. To overcome this limitation, we introduce a tensor transformation method that reshapes 5D inputs into 4D formats during the compilation process, enabling direct deployment without altering the model structure. The proposed system achieves 46.47% AP_3D and 52.75% AP_BEV, maintaining comparable accuracy to GPU-based models while achieving an inference speed of 13.76 Hz. These results demonstrate the applicability of 4D radar-based perception technologies to autonomous driving systems.
