PerlAD: Towards Enhanced Closed-loop End-to-end Autonomous Driving with Pseudo-simulation-based Reinforcement Learning

Description

End-to-end autonomous driving policies based on Imitation Learning (IL) often struggle in closed-loop execution due to the misalignment between inadequate open-loop training objectives and real driving requirements. While Reinforcement Learning (RL) offers a solution by directly optimizing driving goals via reward signals, the rendering-based training environments introduce the rendering gap and are inefficient due to high computational costs. To overcome these challenges, we present a novel Pse
