This model solves the problem that the past end-to-end models cannot detect the position and size of traffic participants. Detrive uses an end-to-end transformer based detection model as its perception module; a multi-layer perceptron as its feature fusion network; a recurrent neural network with gate recurrent unit for path planning; and two controllers for the vehicle's forward speed and turning angle. The model is trained with an on-line imitation learning method. In order to obtain a better training set, a reinforcement learning agent that can directly obtain a ground truth bird's-eye view map from the Carla simulator as a perceptual output, is used as teacher for the imitation learning. The trained model is tested on the Carla's autonomous driving benchmark. The results show that the Transformer detector based end-to-end model has obvious advantages in dynamic obstacle avoidance compared with the traditional classifier based end-to-end model.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.14224v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.14224v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"detrive-imitation-learning-with-transformer","repo_url":"https://github.com/Alexbeast-CN/Detrive","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2310.14224","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
