CrashDiffuser is a closed-loop VLM‑guided diffusion framework designed for fine‑grained safety‑critical traffic scenario generation. It separates semantic collision reasoning from trajectory synthesis via a hierarchical collision‑intent interface that specifies target contact regions (head, rear, or side). The system uses a vision‑language model to extract scene context and predict structured action tuples, which condition a diffusion model to produce executable adversarial trajectories, achieving high target‑collision and contact‑region control rates on WOMD‑derived scenarios.

The paper proposes a new training dataset that generates more informative positive and negative samples for trajectory scoring in autonomous driving. By perturbing logged human trajectories laterally toward the drivable boundary and longitudinally toward a leading vehicle, the dataset provides richer supervision than the planner’s default proposal pool. Using a transformer-based scorer trained on this dataset, the authors achieve improved EPDMS scores on two frozen planners, DiffusionDrive and MeanFuser, when evaluated on the NAVSIM navtrain dataset.
