End-to-End Driving with Online Trajectory Evaluation via BEV World Model

ICCV 25 2025 56.8 method, application

TLDR

Proposes WoTE, an end-to-end driving framework using a BEV world model for online trajectory evaluation, achieving SOTA on simulated benchmarks.

Reasoning

The paper introduces a novel BEV world model for trajectory evaluation, demonstrating latency efficiency and strong performance on NAVSIM and Bench2Drive benchmarks. However, it lacks real-world validation and does not address generative or interactive aspects explicitly.

Deep Analysis

Innovations

  • Proposes WoTE, an end-to-end driving framework that leverages a BEV world model for online trajectory evaluation
  • BEV world model is latency-efficient compared to image-level world models
  • Seamless supervision using off-the-shelf BEV-space traffic simulators

Methodology

WoTE uses a BEV world model to predict future BEV states for trajectory evaluation within an end-to-end differentiable framework. The model is trained with supervision from BEV-space traffic simulators and evaluated on NAVSIM and closed-loop Bench2Drive benchmarks.

Key Results

Achieves state-of-the-art performance on both the NAVSIM benchmark and the closed-loop Bench2Drive benchmark based on the CARLA simulator.
