CarlaFLCAV

CarlaFLCAV is an open-source FLCAV simulation platform based on CARLA simulator that supports:

• Multi-modal dataset generation: Including point-cloud, image, radar data with associated calibration, synchronization, and annotation

• Training and inference: Examples for CAV perception, including object detection, traffic sign detection, and weather classification

• Various FL frameworks: FedAvg, device selection, noisy aggregation, parameter selection, distillation, and personalization

• Optimization based modules: Network resource and road sensor pose optimization.
