Extended Field of View Analysis for VideoGAN-based Trajectory Generation

Safety-critical traffic scenario generation is essential for evaluating autonomous driving systems under rare but high-risk interactions. Existing diffusion-based methods offer strong controllability in closed-loop generation, but their iterative denoising process is computationally expensive and may accumulate sampling and guidance errors over long rollouts, causing unrealistic motion artifacts such as jitter, abnormal acceleration, and off-road behavior. To address these issues, we propose RiskFlow, a closed-loop safety-critical multi-agent traffic generation framework that formulates future trajectory generation as transport in the action space. Instead of relying on iterative denoising, RiskFlow learns an average velocity field over a finite interval to transform Gaussian action sequences into future acceleration and yaw-rate commands with a single forward pass, using a JVP-based objective for efficient and stable training. At test time, RiskFlow applies output-space guidance to the generated actions, steering selected critical agents toward risky interactions while regularizing off-road behavior, and reconstructs physically feasible trajectories through vehicle dynamics. Experiments on nuScenes with tbsim closed-loop evaluation show that RiskFlow achieves a strong adversariality-realism trade-off across multi-agent and long-horizon settings. Compared with representative baselines, RiskFlow consistently improves realism while maintaining competitive safety-critical generation capability, and substantially reduces inference time for evaluation.

Large-scale labelled driving video data is essential for training autonomous driving systems. Although simulation offers scalable and fully annotated data, the domain gap between synthetic and real-world driving videos significantly limits its utility for downstream deployment. Existing video generation methods are not well-suited for this task, as they fail to simultaneously preserve scene structure, object dynamics, temporal consistency, and visual realism, all of which are critical for maintaining annotation validity in generated data. In this paper, we present DriveCtrl, a depth-conditioned controllable sim-to-real video generation framework for realistic driving video synthesis. Built upon a pretrained video foundation model, DriveCtrl introduces a structure-aware adapter that enables depth-guided generation while preserving the scene layout and motion patterns of the source simulation, producing temporally coherent driving videos that remain aligned with the original simulated sequences. We further introduce a scalable data generation pipeline that transforms simulator videos into realistic driving footage matching the visual style of a target real-world dataset. The pipeline supports three conditioning signals: structural depth, reference-dataset style, and text prompts, while preserving frame-level annotations for downstream perception tasks. To better assess this task, we propose a driving-domain-specific knowledge-informed evaluation metric called Driving Video Realism Score (DVRS) that assesses the realism of generated videos. Experiments demonstrate that DriveCtrl consistently outperforms the base model and competing alternatives in realism, temporal quality, and perception task performance, substantially narrowing the sim-to-real gap for driving video generation.

Generating realistic, controllable, and temporally coherent urban environments is a critical yet unresolved challenge in the autonomous driving community. In this paper, we introduce InfiniVerse, a unified pipeline for long-range, 2D-3D-aligned, and controllable synthesis of dynamic urban scenes from a single frame. In practice, our approach first reconstructs a 3D occupancy representation from the input multi-view frame. This representation serves as a foundation for autoregressive scene extension along arbitrary trajectories. Subsequently, a video diffusion model translates the coarse occupancy grid into realistic, spatiotemporally consistent video sequences. Moreover, we propose a hierarchical sketch-and-refine paradigm, in which the generated videos are re-projected as image-conditioned feedback to enhance the 3D occupancy representation, establishing cross-modal alignment and mutual enhancement between the visual and spatial domains. Extensive evaluations on the Waymo Open Dataset and nuScenes demonstrate that InfiniVerse achieves state-of-the-art performance, with a FID of 6.4 and FVD of 67.97, significantly outperforming existing benchmarks in both duration and stability.
