Learning from All Vehicles

CVPR 2022 (also arXiV 2203.11934)

This repo contains code for paper Learning from all vehicles.

It distills a model that performs joint perception, multi-modal prediction and planning, and we hope it to be a great starter kit for end-to-end autonomous driving research.

Getting Started

To run CARLA and train the models, make sure you are using a machine with at least a mid-end GPU.
Please follow INSTALL.md to setup the environment.

Training

We adopt a LBC-style staged privileged distillation framework. Please refer to TRAINING.md for more details.

Evaluation

We additionally provide examplery trained weights in the weights folder if you would like to directly evaluate. They are trained on Town01, 03, 04, 06. Make sure you are launching CARLA with the -vulkan flag.

Inside the root LAV repo, run

ROUTES=[PATH TO ROUTES] ./leaderboard/scripts/run_evaluation.sh

Use ROUTES=assets/routes_lav_valid.xml to run our ablation routes, or ROUTES=leaderboard/data/routes_valid.xml for the validation routes provided by leaderboard.

Dataset

We also release our LAV dataset. Download the dataset HERE.

See TRAINING.md for more details.
