This paper investigates the robustness of LiDAR-camera fusion models for 3D object detection in autonomous driving under various weather conditions. Recent advances have improved performance, but their resilience to fog, rain, snow, and sunlight is understudied. The authors evaluate different fusion strategies on a corrupted dataset, finding that their proposed flexibly weighted fusing approach enhances robustness by adaptively combining LiDAR and camera features across weather scenarios. This method is tested on four types of fusion models with two lightweight implementations, demonstrating its effectiveness.

This paper looks at how well computer vision models can detect objects in self-driving cars when the weather is bad. Right now, these models work pretty well, but they need to get better at handling things like fog, rain, and snow. The researchers tested different ways of combining data from LiDAR sensors and cameras to see which one works best. They found that a simple method that adjusts how much weight each source gets based on the weather works really well.
