Safe quadrotor navigation in cluttered and dynamic environments depends not only on instantaneous geometric perception, but more critically on anticipating collision risks induced by relative motion. Conventional modular pipelines frequently suffer from perception latency, while end-to-end learning methods relying on implicit scalar rewards often struggle to extract reliable spatio-temporal features without physics-grounded supervision.

Efficient Multi-Modal Planning with Reward-Guided Preference Optimization for Autonomous Driving proposes EMPlan, a hybrid trajectory planning method that combines sparse anchors with an offset refinement module for low-latency, high-accuracy predictions. The approach uses a two-stage training paradigm—pretraining followed by reward-guided fine-tuning—to improve safety without extra inference cost, leveraging rule-based reward signals and unpaired preference supervision. EMPlan is evaluated on the non-reactive NAVSIM benchmark, achieving a favorable balance between planning accuracy and efficiency under real-time constraints.
