VLADriver-RAG: Retrieval-Augmented Vision-Language-Action Models for Autonomous Driving

ArXi:2605.08133v1 Announce Type: cross Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models have emerged as a promising paradigm for end-to-end autonomous driving, yet their reliance on implicit parametric knowledge limits generalization in long-tail scenarios. While Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) offers a solution by accessing external expert priors, standard visual retrieval suffers from high latency and semantic ambiguity. To address these challenges, we propose \textbf{VLADriver-RAG}, a framework that grounds planning in explicit, structure-aware historical knowledge.
