Joint Dynamic Lane Reversal and Variable Speed Limit Control: A Graphormer-Based Approach

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper proposes a graph-based method for jointly controlling dynamic lane reversal and variable speed limits in traffic networks, ensuring the network remains strongly connected during lane changes. It introduces a transformer model with Global Endpoint Relation-Aware Spatio-Temporal Self-Attention (GERASTSA) that is pretrained on traffic forecasting and fine-tuned with proximal policy optimization. Experiments on a 6×6 grid show the learned policy can make two-thirds of roads one-way during peak hours, reducing daily delay by up to 90% compared to a fixed configuration.

GRID-Planner: Graph-Structured Relational Reward Shaping for Diffusion Planning

GRID‑Planner introduces a graph‑structured relational reward shaping framework for diffusion‑based autonomous driving planning. By integrating graph‑aware importance weighting, a time‑indexed relational reward surrogate, and an advantage‑weighted diffusion objective with on‑policy self‑distillation, it forms a rollout‑return‑advantage‑update loop that eliminates explicit likelihoods. Experiments on nuPlan and interPlan demonstrate significant reductions in collision rate, lane deviation, and jerk, along with a 3.4% improvement in overall planning score.
