AdaptAV: Continuous Adaption of Vision Models for Autonomous Vehicles Using Cloud-based Oracle

The paper introduces AdaptAV, a system that continuously adapts vision models for autonomous vehicles by retraining them on the cloud using data uploaded from the vehicles. It leverages powerful cloud compute resources and a highly accurate oracle model to guide the retraining process, producing a new model that is then transmitted back to the vehicle. This approach aims to improve inference accuracy over time while maintaining the fast inference speeds required for on‑vehicle deployment.

SV-WAM: An Efficient Surround-View World-Action Model for End-to-End Autonomous Driving

SV-WAM is a surround‑view world‑action model that keeps all six camera views for autonomous driving while enabling efficient inference by discarding the video branch during deployment. It uses future‑video prediction as dense training supervision and introduces an action‑centered causal mask to prevent future‑video tokens from influencing action tokens during joint denoising. A differentiable drivable‑area compliance regularizer further improves safety by penalizing vehicle‑footprint corners that approach or cross drivable boundaries. Experiments on NAVSIMv2 and nuScenes show state‑of‑the‑art planning performance with low latency and strong zero‑shot transfer.

NVIDIA OmniDreams: Real-Time Generative World Model for Closed-Loop Autonomous Vehicle Simulation

As autonomous vehicle capabilities advance, the safe evaluation of driving policies in long-tail scenarios remains a critical bottleneck. In closed-loop simulation, the driving policy model actively interacts with the environment, where its actions dynamically update the simulator state and directly influence the next set of generated sensor observations.

GeoRoute: Geometry-Aware Hybrid Inference for Traffic Future-Frame Prediction

Long-horizon future-frame prediction is important for autonomous driving, traffic surveillance, and intelligent transportation systems, yet remains challenging due to temporal ghosting, geometry drift, and inconsistent object motion. Recent latent video diffusion models have achieved impressive visual quality, but directly applying them to structured traffic scenes often leads to unstable geometry and degraded temporal coherence over extended horizons.

From Segments to Scenes: Temporal Understanding in Autonomous Driving via Vision-Language Model

arXiv:2512. 05277v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are increasingly deployed as the perception and reasoning backbone of autonomous agents acting in the wild, with autonomous driving (AD) being one of the most safety-critical instances.

Lifelong Representations: A Survey on Continual Self-Supervised Learning for Vision Models

arXiv:2607. 09785v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditionally, continual learning has assumed access to labeled data, yet many real-world applications -- such as lifelong robotics -- require models to adapt continuously from unlabeled streams.

MILER: Semantic Mid-Level Representation for Sim-to-Real Reinforcement Learning in Unstructured Autonomous Driving

MILER is an end‑to‑end reinforcement learning framework that achieves zero‑shot sim‑to‑real transfer for autonomous driving in unstructured environments. It uses a custom semantic mid‑level representation (MLR) simulator for offline training, and during deployment it processes real camera and LiDAR data with BEVFusion to produce a compatible bird’s‑eye‑view representation. The policy’s actions are applied via a trajectory‑alignment strategy, allowing the system to drive 17.3 km on a 3.0 km test track without human intervention, all running on a Jetson AGX Orin.
