MAGNIFIED: RL Fine-tuning of Multimodal Large Language Models for Motion Planning

Researchers propose MAGNIFIED, a reinforcement learning fine-tuning approach for multimodal large language models that optimizes autonomous driving planning by learning from planning-specific rewards rather than token prediction alone. Testing on the Waymo Open Motion Dataset shows substantial improvements including 10.5% reduction in trajectory overlap and 38.9% reduction in off-road violations compared to supervised fine-tuning baselines.

Reward-Conditioned Attention: How Reward Design Shapes What Autonomous Driving Agents See

Researchers demonstrate that reward design fundamentally shapes how reinforcement learning agents allocate attention in autonomous driving tasks, with agents trained on different reward configurations exhibiting dramatically different focus patterns—up to 4.7x variation in attention to navigation tokens. The study validates attention analysis as a diagnostic tool for verifying that reward functions produce intended safety-critical behavior in RL systems.
