Zero-Human Demonstration End-to-end Autonomous Driving with Trajectory Scorer
Zhenxin Li, Nadine Chang, Wenhao Yao +9
Human demonstrations are widely considered the cornerstone of end-to-end (E2E) autonomous driving despite human demonstration's scarcity for long-tail and safety-critical scenarios…
Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion: A Tri-Mode Language Model Unifying Autoregressive, Diffusion, and Self-Speculation Decoding
Yonggan Fu, Lexington Whalen, Abhinav Garg +23
We introduce Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion, a tri-mode language model (LM) that unifies AR, diffusion, and self-speculation decoding within a single architecture. Trained with a joint AR…
Fast-dVLM: Efficient Block-Diffusion VLM via Direct Conversion from Autoregressive VLM
Chengyue Wu, Shiyi Lan, Yonggan Fu +9
Vision-language models (VLMs) predominantly rely on autoregressive decoding, which generates tokens one at a time and fundamentally limits inference throughput. This limitation is…
HAD: Combining Hierarchical Diffusion with Metric-Decoupled RL for End-to-End Driving
Wenhao Yao, Xinglong Sun, Zhenxin Li +4
End-to-end planning has emerged as a dominant paradigm for autonomous driving, where recent models often adopt a scoring-selection framework to choose trajectories from a large set…
DriveCritic: Towards Context-Aware, Human-Aligned Evaluation for Autonomous Driving with Vision-Language Models
Jingyu Song, Zhenxin Li, Shiyi Lan +6
Benchmarking autonomous driving planners to align with human judgment remains a critical challenge, as state-of-the-art metrics like the Extended Predictive Driver Model Score (EPD…
DriveSuprim: Towards Precise Trajectory Selection for End-to-End Planning
Wenhao Yao, Zhenxin Li, Shiyi Lan +4
Autonomous vehicles must navigate safely in complex driving environments. Imitating a single expert trajectory, as in regression-based approaches, usually does not explicitly asses…
