Enactor: From Traffic Simulators to Surrogate World Models

ArXi:2603.18266v1 Announce Type: cross Traffic microsimulators are widely used to evaluate road network performance under various ``what-if" conditions. However, the behavior models controlling the actions of the actors are overly simplistic and fails to capture realistic actor-actor interactions. Deep learning-based methods have been applied to model vehicles and pedestrians as ``agents" responding to their surrounding ``environment" (including lanes, signals, and neighboring agents
