Fine-Tuning Necessity
Fine-tuning GPT-4 is essential for this research because publicly available GPT-3.5 lacks the specialized capabilities required for processing and integrating complex multi-sensor data. Perception systems for autonomous driving involve highly domain-specific knowledge, intricate sensor interactions, and nuanced environmental predictions that general-purpose models like GPT-3.5 cannot adequately address. Fine-tuning GPT-4 allows the model to learn from multi-sensor datasets, adapt to the unique challenges of the domain, and provide more accurate and actionable insights. This level of customization is critical for advancing AI’s role in autonomous driving and ensuring its practical utility in real-world scenarios.
Past Research
To better understand the context of this submission, I recommend reviewing my previous work on the application of AI in perception systems, particularly the study titled "Enhancing Environmental Recognition Using Multi-Sensor Data Fusion."
