WAM-Diff2: Hierarchical AR-to-Diffusion Distillation for Highly Efficient Autonomous Driving VLA
Zhihao Zhu, Hanlin Shang, Mingwang Xu +6
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have emerged as a prominent paradigm for end-to-end autonomous driving; however, their efficient deployment is severely constrained by high comp…
CausalVAD: De-confounding End-to-End Autonomous Driving via Causal Intervention
Jiacheng Tang, Zhiyuan Zhou, Zhuolin He +3
Planning-oriented end-to-end driving models show great promise, yet they fundamentally learn statistical correlations instead of true causal relationships. This vulnerability leads…
Composing Driving Worlds through Disentangled Control for Adversarial Scenario Generation
Yifan Zhan, Zhengqing Chen, Qingjie Wang +7
A major challenge in autonomous driving is the "long tail" of safety-critical edge cases, which often emerge from unusual combinations of common traffic elements. Synthesizing thes…
DynamicVGGT: Learning Dynamic Point Maps for 4D Scene Reconstruction in Autonomous Driving
Zhuolin He, Jing Li, Guanghao Li +9
Dynamic scene reconstruction in autonomous driving remains a fundamental challenge due to significant temporal variations, moving objects, and complex scene dynamics. Existing feed…
Vision-Language Feature Alignment for Road Anomaly Segmentation
Zhuolin He, Jiacheng Tang, Jian Pu +1
Safe autonomous systems in complex environments require robust road anomaly segmentation to identify unknown obstacles. However, existing approaches often rely on pixel-level stati…
Multi-modality Anomaly Segmentation on the Road
Heng Gao, Zhuolin He, Shoumeng Qiu +2
Semantic segmentation allows autonomous driving cars to understand the surroundings of the vehicle comprehensively. However, it is also crucial for the model to detect obstacles th…
Detecting OOD Samples via Optimal Transport Scoring Function
Heng Gao, Zhuolin He, Jian Pu
To deploy machine learning models in the real world, researchers have proposed many OOD detection algorithms to help models identify unknown samples during the inference phase and…
Towards Camera Open-set 3D Object Detection for Autonomous Driving Scenarios
Zhuolin He, Xinrun Li, Jiacheng Tang +4
Conventional camera-based 3D object detectors in autonomous driving are limited to recognizing a predefined set of objects, which poses a safety risk when encountering novel or uns…
