Physical Informed Driving World Model

arXiv 24.12 2024 65.9 method, application

TLDR

DrivePhysica generates realistic multi-view driving videos adhering to physical principles via three modules, achieving SOTA on Nuscenes.

Reasoning

Strengths: novel modules for motion, temporal, and spatial consistency; strong quantitative results on a real-world dataset. Weaknesses: limited to driving domain; no interactive or RL aspects; missing explicit limitations discussion.

Innovations

Coordinate System Aligner module that integrates relative and absolute motion features to enhance motion interpretation
Instance Flow Guidance module that ensures precise temporal consistency via efficient 3D flow extraction
Box Coordinate Guidance module that improves spatial relationship understanding and accurately resolves occlusion hierarchies

Methodology

DrivePhysica is a world model designed to generate realistic multi-view driving videos that adhere to physical principles. It incorporates three key modules: Coordinate System Aligner for motion features, Instance Flow Guidance for temporal consistency via 3D flow extraction, and Box Coordinate Guidance for spatial relationships and occlusion. The model is trained and evaluated on the Nuscenes dataset using FID, FVD, and downstream perception tasks.

Key Results

DrivePhysica achieves state-of-the-art performance with 3.96 FID and 38.06 FVD on the Nuscenes dataset, and demonstrates improved results on downstream perception tasks.
