Highlights
- :oncoming_automobile: Planning-oriented philosophy: UniAD is a Unified Autonomous Driving algorithm framework following a planning-oriented philosophy. Instead of standalone modular design and multi-task learning, we cast a series of tasks, including perception, prediction and planning tasks hierarchically.
- :trophy: SOTA performance: All tasks within UniAD achieve SOTA performance, especially prediction and planning (motion: 0.71m minADE, occ: 63.4% IoU, planning: 0.31% avg.Col)

Paper Title Change: To avoid confusion with the “goal-point” navigation in Robotics, we change the title from “Goal-oriented” to “Planning-oriented” suggested by Reviewers. Thank you!

Planning Metric: Discussion [Ref: https://github.com/OpenDriveLab/UniAD/issues/29]: Clarification and Notice regarding open-loop planning results comparison.

2024/08/27 New feature: Implementation for CARLA and closed-loop evaluation on CARLA Leaderboard 2.0 scenarios are available in Bench2Drive.

2023/08/03 Bugfix [Commit]: Previously, the visualized planning results were in opposition on the x axis, compared to the ground truth. Now it’s fixed.
-
2023/06/12 Bugfix [Ref: https://github.com/OpenDriveLab/UniAD/issues/21]: Previously, the performance of the stage1 model (track_map) could not be replicated when trained from scratch, due to mistakenly adding loss_past_traj and freezing img_neck and BN. By removing loss_past_traj and unfreezing img_neck and BN in training, the reported results could be reproduced (AMOTA: 0.393, stage1_train_log).
-
2023/04/18 New feature: You can replace BEVFormer with other BEV Encoding methods, e.g., LSS, as long as you provide the bev_embed and bev_pos in track_train and track_inference. Make sure your bevs and ours are of the same shape.

Getting Started
Results and Pre-trained Models
UniAD is trained in two stages. Pretrained checkpoints of both stages will be released and the results of each model are listed in the following tables.
Stage1: Perception training
We first train the perception modules (i.e., track and map) to obtain a stable weight initlization for the next stage. BEV features are aggregated with 5 frames (queue_length = 5).
Stage2: End-to-end training
We optimize all task modules together, including track, map, motion, occupancy and planning. BEV features are aggregated with 3 frames (queue_length = 3).

Checkpoint Usage
- Download the checkpoints you need into
UniAD/ckpts/ directory.
- You can evaluate these checkpoints to reproduce the results, following the
evaluation section in TRAIN_EVAL.md.
- You can also initialize your own model with the provided weights. Change the
load_from field to path/of/ckpt in the config and follow the train section in TRAIN_EVAL.md to start training.
Model Structure
The overall pipeline of UniAD is controlled by uniad_e2e.py which coordinates all the task modules in UniAD/projects/mmdet3d_plugin/uniad/dense_heads. If you are interested in the implementation of a specific task module, please refer to its corresponding file, e.g., motion_head.
