- Abstract: The rise of large foundation models, trained on extensive datasets, is
revolutionizing the field of AI. Models such as SAM, DALL-E2, and GPT-4
showcase their adaptability by extracting intricate patterns and performing
effectively across diverse tasks, thereby serving as potent building blocks for
a wide range of AI applications. Autonomous driving, a vibrant front in AI
applications, remains challenged by the lack of dedicated vision foundation
models (VFMs). The scarcity of comprehensive training data, the need for
multi-sensor integration, and the diverse task-specific architectures pose
significant obstacles to the development of VFMs in this field. This paper
delves into the critical challenge of forging VFMs tailored specifically for
autonomous driving, while also outlining future directions. Through a
systematic analysis of over 250 papers, we dissect essential techniques for VFM
development, including data preparation, pre-training strategies, and
downstream task adaptation. Moreover, we explore key advancements such as NeRF,
diffusion models, 3D Gaussian Splatting, and world models, presenting a
comprehensive roadmap for future research. To empower researchers, we have
built and maintained https://github.com/zhanghm1995/Forge_VFM4AD, an
open-access repository constantly updated with the latest advancements in
forging VFMs for autonomous driving.
