Lights, Camera, Attack: Exploiting Temporal HDR Fusion with Pulsed Light

Modern cameras widely use temporal High Dynamic Range (HDR) to improve visibility by capturing a sequence of exposures with different integration times and fusing them into a single image. This process implicitly assumes that scene illumination remains sufficiently stable during capture. We introduce FLASH (Fusion-Leve...

Lang3DSeg: Annotation-Free Open-Vocabulary 3D Segmentation with Point Transformers

Accurate 3D semantic perception is critical for safe autonomous navigation. However, supervised LiDAR segmentation remains tied to closed taxonomies and to the cost of point-wise manual annotation. Open-vocabulary methods avoid that cost by projecting the output of 2D vision-language models onto LiDAR and distilling it...

Evaluating the Robustness of Segmentation Models against Adversarial Patches in Off-Road Environments

Semantic Segmentation (SS) is critical for autonomous vehicles to navigate off-road environments by identifying drivable terrain. Although models like ResNet34+UNet and EfficientViT have been proposed for these tasks, their susceptibility to localized adversarial patches in unstructured environments remains under-resea...

GATE: Reliability-Gated Gaussian Evidence Fusion for Training-Free Test-Time Adaptation of Vision-Language Models

GATE is introduced, a training-free two-pass transductive test-time adaptation framework that uses the unlabeled target set while keeping the image encoder, text encoder, and prompt parameters fully frozen, and demonstrates the benefit of reliability-gated distributional evidence for frozen VLM adaptation.

GuixChain: Enforcing Reproducible Builds and Provenance Integrity for Secure Automotive OTA Pipelines

Ensuring the integrity of automotive software, from source code to deployed binaries, has become critical as vehicles increasingly rely on over-the-air (OTA) updates and complex supply chains. The Uptane framework secures OTA update delivery for automotive systems but does not enforce integrity within the upstream soft...

Distilling Vision-Language Models for Robust Traffic Sign Perception in Autonomous Vehicles

Evaluated on GTSRB and LISA across four backbones and three physical attack types, LAMDA is the only method among ten evaluated that consistently improves robustness across all attack-backbone-dataset combinations, while preserving or improving clean accuracy in nearly all cases.
