Overview

arXiv:2608.12198v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent research in machine and deep learning has shown the potential of learningbased motion planning approaches to improve the driving behavior of automated vehicles, especially in complex environments. However, their complex nature and lack of transparency can hinder explainability and trustworthiness and complicate safety assurance. Motivated by these challenges, we propose a hybrid planning architecture that combines the advantages of machine learning with the verifiability and the determinism of classical approaches. Specifically, we developed a deep neural network to interpret complex traffic scenes and propose driving behavior, while an optimization-based supervision layer validates this proposal and enforces explicit drivability and safety constraints. We evaluate the learned planner's driving behavior in open-loop studies on real-world urban data, discuss system integration aspects for stable closed-loop operation, and report results from real-world deployment on our research vehicle karl..
