NAVSIM baselines (TransFuser, LTF)

  • AI model
  • Cars

NAVSIM is a pseudo-simulation framework for evaluating autonomous driving planners, with baseline agents such as TransFuser and LTF. It targets fast, large-scale benchmarking of driving models.

What it does

  • Pseudo-simulation augments real driving data with synthetic observations near the planned trajectory, combining open-loop efficiency with closed-loop robustness.
  • Evaluates planners on all metrics open-loop, without sequential or interactive simulation, reportedly requiring about 6x less compute than closed-loop simulation.
  • Includes baseline agents such as TransFuser and LTF, documented in the agents guide.
  • Provides an Extended PDM Score metric and a two-stage pseudo closed-loop simulation with reactive traffic agents.
  • Used as the primary evaluation framework for the AGC2025 NAVSIM end-to-end driving challenge, with public leaderboards.
