In this paper, we present details of the 1st W-CODA workshop, held in conjunction with the ECCV 2024. W-CODA aims to explore next-generation solutions for autonomous driving corner cases, empowered by state-of-the-art multimodal perception and comprehension techniques. 5 Speakers from both academia and industry are invited to share their latest progress and opinions. We collect research papers and hold a dual-track challenge, including both corner case scene understanding and generation. As the pioneering effort, we will continuously bridge the gap between frontier autonomous driving techniques and fully intelligent, reliable self-driving agents robust towards corner cases.
