Closed-loop traffic simulation remains challenging because it must generate interactive multi-agent behaviors that are scene-consistent and controllable throughout rollout. Prior diffusion-based approaches achieve strong realism, but their computational cost can hinder deployment in time-constrained replanning loops for autonomous vehicle planning and simulation.
arXiv:2607. 02496v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Realistic traffic simulation requires agents that imitate logged behavior and can also be steered along interpretable axes.
