By Yong Chu, Xun Zhou, Zenglin Xu, Hui Wang, Yue Yu
End-to-end autonomous driving models are now able to navigate complex road scenarios, mapping raw sensor observations directly to observed paths for open-loop evaluation and often effective driving in closed-loop evaluation. Yet the internal logic of these safety-critical systems remains largely opaque, due to the complexity of traffic scenes.
Autonomous exploration of unknown 3D environments is traditionally driven by coverage-maximizing geometric heuristics. However, these methods typically determine exploration targets without considering the underlying structural context.
