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.

WALT introduces a method to align latent trajectories with pretrained driving world models, creating a compact generative trajectory space that preserves action-relevant semantics without altering the original model. The approach uses a dual-branch autoencoder to map raw waypoints into this latent space and transfers visual world knowledge into trajectory representations. Experiments on NAVSIM benchmarks show modest performance gains and a 30.5% reduction in planner FLOPs, indicating that maintaining world representations while extracting action-relevant information can improve trajectory planning efficiency.

arXiv:2607. 29031v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing autonomous-driving world models typically perform dense prediction of future videos, occupancy states, BEV representations, or agent motion.
Conventional visual navigation policies often struggle with myopic decision-making and mode collapse in complex environments. While world models offer a promising alternative, existing paradigms typically isolate perception, generation, and control, failing to capture their shared spatio-temporal dynamics.
The paper introduces iDriveVLA, a multi‑modal planning framework for autonomous driving that addresses a generation‑evaluation asymmetry by improving candidate trajectory spaces and providing a unified, safety‑aware evaluator. It combines a Safety‑aware Scorer for risk estimation with a VLM‑guided Modulator that adapts weighting to the scene, and employs an oracle‑aligned progressive training strategy. On the NAVSIM v1 leaderboard, iDriveVLA achieves a new state‑of‑the‑art PDMS score of 94.95, surpassing human‑expert performance.
