Drive-HWM: Hierarchical World Models for Dynamic-Latent Guided Autonomous Driving

Drive‑HWM introduces a hierarchical slow‑fast world modeling framework for autonomous driving. The slow model predicts multi‑step future representations, while the fast model jointly predicts the next frame and immediate action using a lightweight multimodal backbone and an autoregressive expert. Dynamic‑Aware Latents, learned through optical‑flow prediction, explicitly capture motion dynamics, and experiments on NAVSIM v1 and v2 show strong driving performance with validated ablation studies.

X-Mind: Efficient Visual Chain-of-Thought via Predictive World Model for End-to-End Driving

arXiv:2606. 28758v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting future states is essential for autonomous agents, yet current Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models fundamentally lack this capability, relying instead on reactive perception-action mapping.

DriveJudge: Rethinking Autonomous Driving Evaluation with Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2606. 17362v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous driving has shifted towards end-to-end policy learning, where reliable, interpretable policy evaluation is a fundamental challenge as driving quality is highly context-dependent.
