$M^2$-Occ: Resilient 3D Semantic Occupancy Prediction for Autonomous Driving with Incomplete Camera Inputs

Kaixin Lin, Kunyu Peng, Di Wen et al.

Semantic occupancy prediction enables dense 3D geometric and semantic understanding for autonomous driving. However, existing camera-based approaches implicitly assume complete surround-view observations, an assumption that rarely holds in real-world deployment due to occlusion, hardware malfunction, or communication failures. We study semantic occupancy prediction under incomplete multi-camera inputs and introduce $M^2$-Occ, a framework designed to preserve geometric structure and semantic coherence when views are missing. $M^2$-Occ addresses two complementary challenges. First, a Multi-view Masked Reconstruction (MMR) module leverages the spatial overlap among neighboring cameras to recover missing-view representations directly in the feature space. Second, a Feature Memory Module (FMM) introduces a learnable memory bank that stores class-level semantic prototypes. By retrieving and integrating these global priors, the FMM refines ambiguous voxel features, ensuring semantic consistency even when observational evidence is incomplete. We introduce a systematic missing-view evaluation protocol on the nuScenes-based SurroundOcc benchmark, encompassing both deterministic single-view failures and stochastic multi-view dropout scenarios. Under the safety-critical missing back-view setting, $M^2$-Occ improves the IoU by 4.93%. As the number of missing cameras increases, the robustness gap further widens; for instance, under the setting with five missing views, our method boosts the IoU by 5.01%. These gains are achieved without compromising full-view performance. The source code will be publicly released at https://github.com/qixi7up/M2-Occ.

More than the Sum: Panorama-Language Models for Adverse Omni-Scenes

Weijia Fan, Ruiping Liu, Jiale Wei et al.

Existing vision-language models (VLMs) are tailored for pinhole imagery, stitching multiple narrow field-of-view inputs to piece together a complete omni-scene understanding. Yet, such multi-view perception overlooks the holistic spatial and contextual relationships that a single panorama inherently preserves. In this work, we introduce the Panorama-Language Modeling (PLM)paradigm, a unified $360^\circ$ vision-language reasoning that is more than the sum of its pinhole counterparts. Besides, we present PanoVQA, a large-scale panoramic VQA dataset that involves adverse omni-scenes, enabling comprehensive reasoning under object occlusions and driving accidents. To establish a foundation for PLM, we develop a plug-and-play panoramic sparse attention module that allows existing pinhole-based VLMs to process equirectangular panoramas without retraining. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our PLM achieves superior robustness and holistic reasoning under challenging omni-scenes, yielding understanding greater than the sum of its narrow parts.
