Many radar applications rely primarily on visual classification for their evaluations. However, new research is integrating textual descriptions alongside visual input and showing that such multimodal fusion improves contextual understanding. A critical issue in this area is the effective alignment of coded text with corresponding images. To this end, our paper presents an adversarial training framework that generates descriptive text from the latent space of a visual radar classifier. Our quantitative evaluations show that this dual-task approach maintains a robust classification accuracy of 98.3% despite the inclusion of Gaussian-distributed latent spaces. Beyond these numerical validations, we conduct a qualitative study of the text output in relation to the classifier’s predictions. This analysis highlights the correlation between the generated descriptions and the assigned categories and provides insight into the classifier’s visual interpretation processes, particularly in the context of normally uninterpretable radar data.

Segmenting objects in an environment is a crucial task for autonomous driving and robotics, as it enables a better understanding of the surroundings of each agent. Although camera sensors provide rich visual details, they are vulnerable to adverse weather conditions. In contrast, radar sensors remain robust under such conditions, but often produce sparse and noisy data. Therefore, a promising approach is to fuse information from both sensors. In this work, we propose a novel framework to enhance camera-only baselines by integrating a diffusion model into a camera-radar fusion architecture. We leverage radar point features to create pseudo-masks using the Segment-Anything model, treating the projected radar points as point prompts. Additionally, we propose a noise reduction unit to denoise these pseudo-masks, which are further used to generate inpainted images that complete the missing information in the original images. Our method improves the camera-only segmentation baseline by 2.63% in mIoU and enhances our camera-radar fusion architecture by 1.48% in mIoU on the Waterscenes dataset. This demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach for semantic segmentation using camera-radar fusion under adverse weather conditions.
