VADv2: End-to-End Autonomous Driving via Probabilistic Planning

ICLR 2026poster

Learning a human-like driving policy from large-scale driving demonstrations is promising, but the uncertainty and non-deterministic nature of planning make it challenging. Existing learning-based planning methods follow a deterministic paradigm to directly regress the action, failing to cope with t…

Lane Graph as Path: Continuity-preserving Path-wise Modeling for Online Lane Graph Construction

ECCV 2024poster

"Online lane graph construction is a promising but challenging task in autonomous driving. Previous methods usually model the lane graph at the pixel or piece level, and recover the lane graph by pixel-wise or piece-wise connection, which breaks down the continuity of the lane and results in subopti…
