ObsDriveBench: Benchmarking Multimodal Understanding under Adverse Weather with Observability Awareness

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.23537v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous driving under adverse weather remains a critical challenge, yet existing vision-language benchmarks mainly evaluate under standard conditions, synthetic corruptions, or single modality. As a result, it remains unclear how vision-language models behave under real-world adverse weather with multi-modal inputs. We argue that a key difficulty lies in degraded environmental observability: under fog, rain, snow, and low illumination, multi-modal observations become unreliable and cross-modally inconsistent, posing challenges to scene understanding, and subsequent decision-making. To study this, we introduce \textbf{ObsDriveBench}, a real-world multi-modal benchmark for adverse-weather autonomous driving. Our benchmark is designed with th
