DiVE: DiT-based Video Generation with Enhanced Control

Generating high-fidelity, temporally consistent videos in autonomous driving scenarios faces a significant challenge, e.g. problematic maneuvers in corner cases. Despite recent video generation works are proposed to tackcle the mentioned problem, i.e. models built on top of Diffusion Transformers (DiT), works are still missing which are targeted on exploring the potential for multi-view videos generation scenarios. Noticeably, we propose the first DiT-based framework specifically designed for generating temporally and multi-view consistent videos which precisely match the given bird's-eye view layouts control. Specifically, the proposed framework leverages a parameter-free spatial view-inflated attention mechanism to guarantee the cross-view consistency, where joint cross-attention modules and ControlNet-Transformer are integrated to further improve the precision of control. To demonstrate our advantages, we extensively investigate the qualitative comparisons on nuScenes dataset, particularly in some most challenging corner cases. In summary, the effectiveness of our proposed method in producing long, controllable, and highly consistent videos under difficult conditions is proven to be effective.

UA-Track: Uncertainty-Aware End-to-End 3D Multi-Object Tracking

3D multiple object tracking (MOT) plays a crucial role in autonomous driving perception. Recent end-to-end query-based trackers simultaneously detect and track objects, which have shown promising potential for the 3D MOT task. However, existing methods overlook the uncertainty issue, which refers to the lack of precise confidence about the state and location of tracked objects. Uncertainty arises owing to various factors during motion observation by cameras, especially occlusions and the small size of target objects, resulting in an inaccurate estimation of the object's position, label, and identity. To this end, we propose an Uncertainty-Aware 3D MOT framework, UA-Track, which tackles the uncertainty problem from multiple aspects. Specifically, we first introduce an Uncertainty-aware Probabilistic Decoder to capture the uncertainty in object prediction with probabilistic attention. Secondly, we propose an Uncertainty-guided Query Denoising strategy to further enhance the training process. We also utilize Uncertainty-reduced Query Initialization, which leverages predicted 2D object location and depth information to reduce query uncertainty. As a result, our UA-Track achieves state-of-the-art performance on the nuScenes benchmark, i.e., 66.3% AMOTA on the test split, surpassing the previous best end-to-end solution by a significant margin of 8.9% AMOTA.

Unleashing Generalization of End-to-End Autonomous Driving with Controllable Long Video Generation

Using generative models to synthesize new data has become a de-facto standard in autonomous driving to address the data scarcity issue. Though existing approaches are able to boost perception models, we discover that these approaches fail to improve the performance of planning of end-to-end autonomous driving models as the generated videos are usually less than 8 frames and the spatial and temporal inconsistencies are not negligible. To this end, we propose Delphi, a novel diffusion-based long video generation method with a shared noise modeling mechanism across the multi-views to increase spatial consistency, and a feature-aligned module to achieves both precise controllability and temporal consistency. Our method can generate up to 40 frames of video without loss of consistency which is about 5 times longer compared with state-of-the-art methods. Instead of randomly generating new data, we further design a sampling policy to let Delphi generate new data that are similar to those failure cases to improve the sample efficiency. This is achieved by building a failure-case driven framework with the help of pre-trained visual language models. Our extensive experiment demonstrates that our Delphi generates a higher quality of long videos surpassing previous state-of-the-art methods. Consequentially, with only generating 4% of the training dataset size, our framework is able to go beyond perception and prediction tasks, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, boost the planning performance of the end-to-end autonomous driving model by a margin of 25%.

SPSTracker: Sub-Peak Suppression of Response Map for Robust Object Tracking

I'm sorry, Table2,3(VOT2016,2018) do not match figure6,7(VOT2016,2018).More experiments need to be added. However, this replacement version may take a lot of time, because a lot of experiments need to be done again, and now because of the Chinese Spring Festival and the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) can't do experiments, in order to ensure the rigor of the paper, I applied to withdraw the manuscript, and then resubmit it after the replacement version.
