DriveLaW: Unifying Planning and Video Generation in a Latent Driving World

CVPR 2026

World models have become crucial for autonomous driving, as they learn how scenarios evolve over time to address the long-tail challenges of the real world. However, current approaches relegate world models to limited roles: they operate within ostensibly unified architectures that still keep world

Multifaceted Scenario-Aware Hypergraph Learning for Next POI Recommendation

AAAI 2026technical

Among the diverse services provided by Location-Based Social Networks (LBSNs), Next Point-of-Interest (POI) recommendation plays a crucial role in inferring user preferences from historical check-in trajectories. However, existing sequential and graph-based methods frequently neglect significant mob

ReCogDrive: A Reinforced Cognitive Framework for End-to-End Autonomous Driving

ICLR 2026poster

Recent studies have explored leveraging the world knowledge and cognitive capabilities of Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to address the long-tail problem in end-to-end autonomous driving. However, existing methods typically formulate trajectory planning as a language modeling task, where physical act…

Think Before You Drive: World Model-Inspired Multimodal Grounding

CVPR 2026

Interpreting natural-language commands to localize target objects is critical for autonomous driving (AD). Existing visual grounding (VG) methods in AD struggle with ambiguous, context-dependent instructions, as they lack reasoning over 3D spatial relations and anticipated scene evolution. Grounded

Mask-Adapter: The Devil is in the Masks for Open-Vocabulary Segmentation

CVPR 2025poster

Recent open-vocabulary segmentation methods adopt mask generators to predict segmentation masks and leverage pre-trained vision-language models, *e.g.*, CLIP, to classify these masks via mask pooling.Although these approaches show promising results, it is counterintuitive that accurate masks often f…
