CLEAR: Cognition and Latent Evaluation for Adaptive Routing in End-to-End Autonomous Driving
Researchers introduce CLEAR, a new framework for autonomous driving that combines fast generative planning with semantic reasoning to address the latency problems of diffusion models. By replacing iterative denoising with single-step conditional drift in VAE latent space and fine-tuning language models for scene understanding, the system achieves state-of-the-art performance on the NAVSIM benchmark without sacrificing multi-modal trajectory generation.
