Multimodal Large Language Models have demonstrated powerful cross-modal understanding and reasoning capabilities in general domains. However, in the electromagnetic (EM) domain, they still face challenges such as data scarcity and insufficient integration of domain knowledge. This paper proposes PReD, the first foundation model for the EM domain that covers the intelligent closed-loop of "perception, recognition, decision-making." We constructed a high-quality multitask EM dataset, PReD-1.3M, and an evaluation benchmark, PReD-Bench. The dataset encompasses multi-perspective representations such as raw time-domain waveform, frequency-domain spectrograms, and constellation diagrams, covering typical features of communication and radar signals. It supports a range of core tasks, including signal detection, modulation recognition, parameter estimation, protocol recognition, radio frequency fingerprint recognition, and anti-jamming decision-making. PReD adopts a multi-stage training strategy that unifies multiple tasks for EM signals. It achieves closed-loop optimization from end-to-end signal understanding to language-driven reasoning and decision-making, significantly enhancing EM domain expertise while maintaining general multimodal capabilities. Experimental results show that PReD achieves state-of-the-art performance on PReD-Bench constructed from both open-source and self-collected signal datasets. These results collectively validate the feasibility and potential of vision-aligned foundation models in advancing the understanding and reasoning of EM signals.

Accurate 3D multi-object tracking (MOT) is crucial for autonomous driving, as it enables robust perception, navigation, and planning in complex environments. While deep learning-based solutions have demonstrated impressive 3D MOT performance, model-based approaches remain appealing for their simplicity, interpretability, and data efficiency. Conventional model-based trackers typically rely on random vector-based Bayesian filters within the tracking-by-detection (TBD) framework but face limitations due to heuristic data association and track management schemes. In contrast, random finite set (RFS)-based Bayesian filtering handles object birth, survival, and death in a theoretically sound manner, facilitating interpretability and parameter tuning. In this paper, we present OptiPMB, a novel RFS-based 3D MOT method that employs an optimized Poisson multi-Bernoulli (PMB) filter while incorporating several key innovative designs within the TBD framework. Specifically, we propose a measurement-driven hybrid adaptive birth model for improved track initialization, employ adaptive detection probability parameters to effectively maintain tracks for occluded objects, and optimize density pruning and track extraction modules to further enhance overall tracking performance. Extensive evaluations on nuScenes and KITTI datasets show that OptiPMB achieves superior tracking accuracy compared with state-of-the-art methods, thereby establishing a new benchmark for model-based 3D MOT and offering valuable insights for future research on RFS-based trackers in autonomous driving.
