• Abstract: Detection of surrounding objects and their motion prediction are critical components of a self-driving system. Recently proposed models that jointly address these tasks rely on a number of sensors to achieve state-of-the-art performance. However, this increases system complexity and may result in a brittle model that overfits to any single sensor modality while ignoring others, leading to reduced generalization. We focus on this important problem and analyze the contribution of sensor modalities towards the model performance. In addition, we investigate the use of sensor dropout to mitigate the above-mentioned issues, leading to a more robust, better-performing model on real-world driving data.

  Multi-sensor fusion models play a crucial role in autonomous driving perception, particularly in tasks like 3D object detection and HD map construction. These models provide essential and comprehensive static environmental information for autonomous driving systems. While camera-LiDAR fusion methods have shown promising results, they often depend on complete sensor inputs. This reliance can lead to low robustness and potential failures when sensors are corrupted or missing, raising significant safety concerns. To tackle this challenge, we introduce the Multi-Sensor Corruption Benchmark (MSC-Bench), the first comprehensive benchmark aimed at evaluating the robustness of multi-sensor autonomous driving perception models against various sensor corruption
