arXiv:2603. 05995v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Off-road autonomous driving poses significant challenges such as navigating unmapped, variable terrain with uncertain and diverse dynamics.
arXiv:2606. 16480v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Robots deployed in the real world must plan motions across diverse scenarios without per-scenario retuning.
arXiv:2503. 23650v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL), with its ability to explore and optimize policies in complex, dynamic decision-making tasks, has emerged as a promising approach to addressing motion planning (MoP) challenges in autonomous driving (AD).
arXiv:2510. 12560v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: End-to-end autonomous driving models trained with imitation learning (IL) often generalize poorly, particularly in long-tail scenarios where expert demonstrations are sparse.
arXiv:2608. 10403v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) has shown promising performance in autonomous driving, yet ensuring the safety of online RL policies remains challenging due to insufficient exposure to safety-critical driving scenes.
arXiv:2607. 09336v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion-based trajectory planners have shown strong performance in offline reinforcement learning, but their iterative denoising process often incurs high inference cost.
arXiv:2608. 10386v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sample-efficient reinforcement learning for autonomous driving is often limited by the trade-off between data efficiency and model bias.
arXiv:2606. 30537v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous driving policies should be able to improve continually as deployment exposes them to increasingly diverse and long-tail traffic situations.
arXiv:2508. 16947v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Despite significant progress, imitation learning-based autonomous driving planners remain largely restricted to reproducing high-frequency biased behaviors, overlooking the inherent behavioral diversity of human driving.
arXiv:2604. 03497v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language-model (VLM)-guided reinforcement learning (RL) has recently attracted significant attention for it, replacing brittle hand-crafted rewards with semantically grounded signals; however, deploying such simulation-trained policies on real vehicles remains a fundamental challenge, because they rely on simulator-native observations and simulator-coupled action semantics with no counterpart on physical hardware.
arXiv:2607. 18637v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generating closed-loop traffic scenarios that are both realistic and controllable is crucial for evaluating autonomous driving systems, especially under rare safety-critical interactions.
arXiv:2606. 26527v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transfer learning improves policy learning efficiency by reusing knowledge from source tasks, providing a feasible paradigm for safe and efficient autonomous highway lane changing decision-making.
End-to-end models that map multimodal inputs directly to future trajectories/maneuvers have emerged as an increasingly prominent research paradigm in autonomous driving. This class of models includes both Vision-Language-Action models and trajectory-generative planners.
