DynSSM: A Physics-Aware State-Space Memory Framework for Learning Vehicle Dynamics

- 用状态空间记忆捕捉车辆长期短期动态,融合物理模型结构。
- 在真实赛道上预测误差降低超70%,一小时圈速快13.2%。
- 适合高阶自动驾驶、竞赛级控制,兼顾精度与可解释性。
精确建模非线性车辆动态对高速自动驾驶竞速至关重要,控制器常运行于极限工况。基于模型的方法虽可解释但依赖简化假设,纯学习模型能捕捉非线性却常缺乏物理一致性、泛化能力及对工况变化的适应性。本文提出DynSSM,一种融合学习时序表征与结构化车辆动力学模型的物理感知状态空间记忆框架。该方法结合状态空间序列建模与递归编码器,捕捉长短期动态行为,并在有界范围内实时调整轮胎与车辆参数以保持物理合理性。残差修正机制补偿未建模动态,同时保留物理结构。在模拟小规模竞速数据与真实全尺寸自主印第安纳波利斯赛车数据上验证。在未见过的真实赛道上,相比最先进基线,纵向速度预测RMSE降低27.2%,横向速度降低73.9%,航向角速度降低88.8%。组件消融实验表明时序记忆、参数自适应与残差修正对性能与鲁棒性均关键。进一步闭环仿真显示,使用非线性模型预测控制时,DynSSM在各赛道仍可行,单圈时间最多缩短13.2%。结果表明,结合时序记忆、有界物理引导参数调整与残差修正,可实现精准、可解释且可用于控制的竞速动态模型。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Accurate modeling of nonlinear vehicle dynamics is essential for high-speed autonomous racing, where controllers operate at the handling limits. Model-based methods are interpretable but rely on simplifying assumptions, while purely learned models capture nonlinearities yet often lack physical consistency, generalization, and adaptability to changing operating conditions. This paper presents DynSSM, a physics-aware state-space memory framework that combines learned temporal representations with a structured vehicle dynamics model. The proposed approach integrates state-space sequence modeling and recurrent encoders to capture long- and short-term dynamic behavior. It simultaneously adapts tire and vehicle-dynamics parameters within bounded ranges to preserve physical plausibility. A residual correction mechanism compensates for remaining unmodeled dynamics while preserving the underlying physics-based structure. DynSSM is evaluated on both simulated small-scale racing data and real-world full-scale autonomous Indy racecar data. When evaluated on an unseen real-world track, DynSSM reduces one-step prediction RMSE by up to $27.2\%$ in longitudinal velocity, $73.9\%$ in lateral velocity, and $88.8\%$ in yaw rate compared with the state-of-the-art (\sota{}) baselines. Component-wise ablation studies demonstrate the importance of temporal memory, parameter adaptation, and residual correction for predictive performance and robustness. Further, closed-loop simulations using nonlinear model predictive control demonstrate that DynSSM remains feasible across the evaluated tracks and achieves up to a 13.2\% reduction in one-lap completion time compared with \sota{} baselines. These results indicate that combining temporal memory, bounded physics-guided parameter adaptation, and residual correction provides an accurate, interpretable, and control-ready dynamics model for autonomous racing.
