Overview

arXiv:2606.31483v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalized driving can improve the user acceptance of automated driving systems. However, existing methods still provide limited support for translating natural-language driving preferences, especially when such preferences are expressed implicitly, into executable and distinguishable driving behaviors. This paper proposes a large language model (LLM)-supported personalized driving framework for highway lane-change scenarios. The framework maps natural-language driving commands to executable planning parameters in the open-source Apollo automated driving stack according to three driving styles: aggressive, normal, and conservative. To establish this mapping, candidate planning parameters are evaluated based on the resulting lane-change behaviors, and style-specific parameter sets are constructed through clustering and style-intensity ranking. For command interpretation, a retrieval dataset is constructed to support retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), enabling LLM-based interpretation of implicit user commands. Experimental results show that the derived parameter sets generate distinguishable personalized lane-change behaviors, while RAG consistently improves preference interpretation, particularly for implicit commands. These results indicate the potential of integrating LLM-based natural-language interaction with Apollo to support personalized lane-change behavior generation.
