PDM-Lite Dataset for CARLA Leaderboard 2.0
Description
PDM-Lite is a state-of-the-art rule-based expert system for autonomous urban driving in CARLA Leaderboard 2.0, and the first to successfully navigate all scenarios. This dataset was used to create the QA dataset for DriveLM-Carla, a benchmark for evaluating end-to-end autonomous driving algorithms with Graph Visual Question Answering (GVQA). DriveLM introduces GVQA as a novel approach, modeling perception, prediction, and planning through interconnected question-answer pairs, mimicking human reasoning processes. Additionally, this dataset was used for training Transfuser++ with imitation learning, which achieved 1st place (map track) and 2nd place (sensor track) in the CARLA Autonomous Driving Challenge 2024. This dataset builds upon the PDM-Lite expert, incorporating enhancements from "Tackling CARLA Leaderboard 2.0 with End-to-End Imitation Learning".
