AutoWorld: Learning Multi-Agent Traffic Simulation with Self-Supervised World Models

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2603.28963v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Simulation with realistic traffic agents is essential for validating autonomous driving systems. Existing data-driven simulators learn agent behavior from higher-level abstractions such as 3D bounding boxes and polylines, inferred by upstream perception pipelines. These lossy abstractions discard sensory context that directly shapes agent behavior, limiting the distributional realism that simulation aims to reproduce. To address this limitation, we propose AutoWorld, a traffic simulation framework that grounds agent behavior in raw sensor observations through a self-supervised world model trained on LiDAR occupancy data. Given world model samples, AutoWorld constructs a coarse-to-fine predictive scene context as input to a multi-age
