arXiv:2510. 12560v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: End-to-end autonomous driving models trained with imitation learning (IL) often generalize poorly, particularly in long-tail scenarios where expert demonstrations are sparse.

arXiv:2607. 13028v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training robust autonomous driving agents requires a simulator that is fast enough for reinforcement learning at scale, realistic enough to ground behavior in real-world map structure, and diverse enough to cover the safety-critical long tail that logged data rarely contains.

arXiv:2506. 20668v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose DemoDiffusion, a simple method for enabling robots to perform manipulation tasks by imitating a single human demonstration, without requiring task-specific training or paired human-robot data.

The paper reports on training autonomous driving policies via self‑play, extending previous work by using Transformers and a real‑city high‑definition map. On CARLA and Waymo benchmarks, the resulting policies underperform compared to Gigaflow, with identified failure modes such as reward hacking at traffic lights and lack of incentive to stop at stop signs. The authors also analyze which traffic rules emerge from self‑play and confirm that reward conditioning produces diverse driving behaviors.

arXiv:2606. 18537v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Humans often acquire new skills by observing others, since observed behaviors implicitly reveal how to act in an environment.
