Evaluation Is All You Need for Multi-Modal Autonomous Driving

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.

Risk-Aware World Modeling with Flow-Guided Occupancy Evolution for Selective Trajectory Planning in Automated Driving

RiskWorld is a risk‑aware world modeling framework that forecasts shared occupancy and selectively replaces planned trajectories in automated driving. It fuses spatial risk fields, temporal actor context, and visual bird’s‑eye‑view features, using flow‑guided evolution to transport occupancy and signed residuals to correct it. In open‑loop planning on nuScenes, RiskWorld achieves the lowest collision rate over a 3‑second horizon and the second‑best average L2 error, running at 11.5 FPS on a single NVIDIA RTX 4090.

UniDrive: A Unified Vision-Language and Grounding Framework for Interpretable Risk Understanding in Autonomous Driving

arXiv:2606. 24759v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong potential for autonomous driving scene understanding, yet existing methods still face a fundamental trade-off between temporal reasoning and spatial precision.
