多模态大语言模型(MLLM)在语义理解与常识推理方面表现出色,是解决自动驾驶规划问题的有力候选。然而,传统预训练和监督微调中使用的下一个词预测目标,难以满足车辆规划任务的需求——该目标仅关注单个词的模仿,忽视多步后果及对其他交通参与者留出空间等关键规划考量。为此,我们提出一种基于强化学习微调(RLFT)的方法MAGNIFIED,通过将生成的词序列映射为车辆轨迹,并基于规划奖励进行学习,使模型优化真正规划目标而非仅追求词预测准确率,从而超越简单模仿,深化对规划任务的理解。我们在Waymo开放运动数据集上验证方法,采用新的输入设置:栅格化鸟瞰图与编码轨迹。初始监督微调阶段建立良好基线,能以文本形式输出轨迹坐标;后续强化学习微调显著提升规划性能(重叠率降低超过10.5%,离道率降低38.9%),证明了在MLLM上应用强化学习微调,可实现更合规、舒适、高效的车辆规划。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in semantic understanding and common sense reasoning, making them promising candidates for solving planning problems in autonomous driving. However, the next-token text prediction objectives traditionally used in pre-training and supervised fine-tuning (SFT) of MLLMs may fall short of fulfilling the planning objectives for autonomous vehicles. The next-token prediction objective merely encourages per-token imitation in text, often irrespective of multi-step consequences and the alignment with crucial planning considerations such as giving space to other road actors. To overcome these limitations, we propose a reinforcement learning fine-tuning (RLFT) approach, MAGNIFIED, that aligns the MLLM-based driving agent with planning objectives by learning from token-level rewards. By mapping a sequence of predicted tokens to corresponding vehicle trajectories and learning from planning rewards, MAGNIFIED optimizes for the true planning objectives rather than focusing solely on token prediction accuracy, enabling the model to refine its understanding of the planning task beyond simple imitation. We validate our approach on the Waymo Open Motion Dataset with a novel setup incorporating rasterized birds-eye views and tokenized trajectories as inputs and planning-oriented outputs. An initial SFT phase establishes a strong baseline in outputting plan trajectories as sequences of X-Y coordinates in text, while subsequent RL fine-tuning substantially enhances planning performance relative to the SFT baseline (demonstrating over a 10.5% reduction in overlap rate and a 38.9% reduction in off-road rate), underscoring the potential of RLFT on MLLMs to achieve vehicle planning that is better aligned with compliant, comfortable, and efficient driving.
