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.
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.
