EvoDrive: Pareto Evolution for Safety-Critical Autonomous Driving via Self-Improving LLM Agents
EvoDrive is a new framework designed for generating safety-critical scenarios in autonomous driving systems. It utilizes a simulator-grounded actor-critic architecture to enhance the generation process while maintaining realism and maximizing adversariality. The framework has shown promising results in expanding the Pareto frontier and producing valuable scenarios for policy training in autonomous vehicles.
- ▪EvoDrive is the first automated, LLM-based agentic evolution framework for multi-objective scenario generation.
- ▪The framework employs a memory-driven actor and a self-evolving world evaluator to optimize simulation budgets.
- ▪Benchmark results indicate that EvoDrive significantly expands the Pareto frontier across various generators.
