Recent cooperative perception datasets have played a crucial role in advancing smart mobility applications by enabling information exchange between intelligent agents, helping to overcome challenges such as occlusions and improving overall scene understanding. While some existing real-world datasets incorporate both vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure interactions, they are typically limited to a single intersection or a single vehicle. A comprehensive perception dataset featuring multiple connected vehicles and infrastructure sensors across several intersections remains unavailable, limiting the benchmarking of algorithms in diverse traffic environments. Consequently, overfitting can occur, and models may demonstrate misleadingly high performance due to similar intersection layouts and traffic participant behavior. To address this gap, we introduce UrbanIng-V2X, the first large-scale, multi-modal dataset supporting cooperative perception involving vehicles and infrastructure sensors deployed across three urban intersections in Ingolstadt, Germany. UrbanIng-V2X consists of 34 temporally aligned and spatially calibrated sensor sequences, each lasting 20 seconds. All sequences contain recordings from one of three intersections, involving two vehicles and up to three infrastructure-mounted sensor poles operating in coordinated scenarios. In total, UrbanIng-V2X provides data from 12 vehicle-mounted RGB cameras, 2 vehicle LiDARs, 17 infrastructure thermal cameras, and 12 infrastructure LiDARs. All sequences are annotated at a frequency of 10 Hz with 3D bounding boxes spanning 13 object classes, resulting in approximately 712k annotated instances across the dataset.

A.1 Coordinate Systems and Transformation To achieve spatial synchronization between different sensors, vehicle-vehicle-UAV collaboration requires using sensor parameter information to perform coordinate system transformations. The relationships between the coordinate systems are illustrated in Fig. S 1. Figure 1: Relationship between coordinate systems. The pixel coordinate system refers to a two-dimensional coordinate system defined on the image plane, typically represented as (u,v), with units in pixels. In this system, the origin is located at the top-left corner of the image, the u-axis points to the right along the horizontal direction, and the v-axis points downward along the vertical direction. This coordinate system is used to describe the position of points on the two-dimensional image captured by the camera.

By sharing information across multiple agents, collaborative perception helps autonomous vehicles mitigate occlusions and improve overall perception accuracy. While most previous work focus on vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure collaboration, with limited attention to aerial perspectives provided by UAVs, which uniquely offer dynamic, top-down views to alleviate occlusions and monitor large-scale interactive environments. A major reason for this is the lack of highquality datasets for aerial-ground collaborative scenarios. To bridge this gap, we present AGC-Drive, the first large-scale real-world dataset for Aerial-Ground Cooperative 3D perception. The data collection platform consists of two vehicles, each equipped with five cameras and one LiDAR sensor, and one UAV carrying a forward-facing camera and a LiDAR sensor, enabling comprehensive multi-view and multi-agent perception.

Abstract-- Cooperative perception enabled by V ehicle-to-Everything communication has shown great promise in enhancing situational awareness for autonomous vehicles and other mobile robotic platforms. Despite recent advances in perception backbones and multi-agent fusion, real-world deployments remain challenged by hard detection cases, exemplified by partial detections and noise accumulation which limit downstream detection accuracy. This work presents Diffusion on Reinforced Cooperative Perception (DRCP), a real-time de-ployable framework designed to address aforementioned issues in dynamic driving environments. The proposed system achieves real-time performance on mobile platforms while significantly improving robustness under challenging conditions. Code will be released in late 2025. I. INTRODUCTION Robotic systems such as autonomous vehicles and mobile agents rely heavily on perception to understand their surroundings and make informed decisions.

Abstract-- Current state-of-the-art autonomous vehicles could face safety-critical situations when their local sensors are occluded by large nearby objects on the road. V ehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) cooperative autonomous driving has been proposed as a means of addressing this problem, and one recently introduced framework for cooperative autonomous driving has further adopted an approach that incorporates a Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) to integrate cooperative perception and planning processes. However, despite the potential benefit of applying graph-of-thoughts reasoning to the MLLM, this idea has not been considered by previous cooperative autonomous driving research. In this paper, we propose a novel graph-of-thoughts framework specifically designed for MLLM-based cooperative autonomous driving. Our graph-of-thoughts includes our proposed novel ideas of occlusion-aware perception and planning-aware prediction. We curate the V2V-GoT -QA dataset and develop the V2V-GoT model for training and testing the cooperative driving graph-of-thoughts. Our experimental results show that our method outperforms other baselines in cooperative perception, prediction, and planning tasks. Today's autonomous vehicles rely mainly on mounted cameras or LiDAR sensors to perceive the world, understand the dynamic surrounding scenes, and take driving decisions over time. Inherently such reliance on the vehicle's local sensors can be limiting, particularly in situations where vehicles and other potential obstacles are occluded by other large nearby objects, such as buses or trucks.

With the rapid advancement of autonomous driving technology, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication has emerged as a key enabler for extending perception range and enhancing driving safety by providing visibility beyond the line of sight. However, integrating multi-source sensor data from both ego-vehicles and infrastructure under real-world constraints, such as limited communication bandwidth and dynamic environments, presents significant technical challenges. T o facilitate research in this area, we organized the End-to-End Autonomous Driving through V2X Cooperation Challenge, which features two tracks: cooperative temporal perception and cooperative end-to-end planning. Built on the UniV2X framework and the V2X-Seq-SPD dataset, the challenge attracted participation from over 30 teams worldwide and established a unified benchmark for evaluating cooperative driving systems. This paper describes the design and outcomes of the challenge, highlights key research problems including bandwidth-aware fusion, robust multi-agent planning, and heterogeneous sensor integration, and analyzes emerging technical trends among top-performing solutions. By addressing practical constraints in communication and data fusion, the challenge contributes to the development of scalable and reliable V2X-cooperative autonomous driving systems.

--Autonomous trucking offers significant benefits, such as improved safety and reduced costs, but faces unique perception challenges due to trucks' large size and dynamic trailer movements. These challenges include extensive blind spots and occlusions that hinder the truck's perception and the capabilities of other road users. T o address these limitations, cooperative perception emerges as a promising solution. However, existing datasets predominantly feature light vehicle interactions or lack multi-agent configurations for heavy-duty vehicle scenarios. T o bridge this gap, we introduce TruckV2X, the first large-scale truck-centered cooperative perception dataset featuring multi-modal sensing (LiDAR and cameras) and multi-agent cooperation (tractors, trailers, CA Vs, and RSUs). We further investigate how trucks influence collaborative perception needs, establishing performance benchmarks while suggesting research priorities for heavy vehicle perception. The dataset provides a foundation for developing cooperative perception systems with enhanced occlusion handling capabilities, and accelerates the deployment of multi-agent autonomous trucking systems. UTONOMOUS trucking is expected to benefit the logistics industry in improved road safety, reduced operational costs, and solutions to driver shortages [1].

The proposal introduces an innovative drone swarm perception system that aims to solve problems related to computational limitations and low-bandwidth communication, and real-time scene reconstruction. The framework enables efficient multi-agent 3D/4D scene synthesis through federated learning of shared diffusion model and YOLOv12 lightweight semantic extraction and local NeRF updates while maintaining privacy and scalability. The framework redesigns generative diffusion models for joint scene reconstruction, and improves cooperative scene understanding, while adding semantic-aware compression protocols. The approach can be validated through simulations and potential real-world deployment on drone testbeds, positioning it as a disruptive advancement in multi-agent AI for autonomous systems.
