Abstract:This paper presents a forward-looking vision for integrating the emerging multi-modal multi-task federated foundation models (M3T FedFMs) into vehicular networks, with the goal of unifying the expressive power of multi-modal multi-task foundation models (M3T FMs) with the privacy-preserving and distributed learning capabilities of federated learning (FL). Given the largely underexplored nature of this research direction, we first introduce the fundamental training/fine-tuning principles of M3T FedFMs. We then discuss a range of their representative use cases in vehicular networks, illustrating the significant potential of M3T FedFMs to enable next-generation vehicular intelligence. Afterwards, we identify key constraints inherent to vehicular environments that challenge the practical deployment of M3T FedFMs, and articulate a set of forward-looking research directions to address these challenges. Furthermore, through a case study conducted on a real-world vehicular dataset (i.e., Waymo Open Dataset), we demonstrate the promise of M3T FedFMs for vehicular networks and release our implementation to facilitate reproducibility and stimulate research in this emerging area (repository: this https URL)
