The paper introduces TopoEnhance, a framework that improves the reliability of scene topology graphs for autonomous driving by treating topology enhancement as a denoising reconstruction task. It learns to recover structural consistency from corrupted ground‑truth graphs, thereby correcting logical inconsistencies and unreliable connections. Experiments show consistent gains in both continuous topology metrics (TOP score) and discrete connectivity (Topology Jaccard Similarity) across multiple baselines without retraining.

Motion forecasting is essential for autonomous driving systems to enable safe decision-making and planning in complex driving scenarios. While existing predictors excel at minimizing standard displacement errors, they often overlook the adherence to lane topology of multimodal predictions, particularly for lower-probability modes.

The paper introduces WZPlanner, a new dataset and model for safe autonomous driving in work zones. The dataset, WorkZonePlan, contains over 149,000 synthetic and 5,000 real-world samples with 3D annotations for lane and work zone boundaries, plus 228 evaluation routes in CARLA. The proposed BoundaryFormer (BF) and its enhanced BF++ variants jointly predict lane/work‑zone boundaries and driving trajectories, achieving higher Driving Scores while being significantly smaller than competing models.
