RECTOR: Priority-Aware Rule-Based Reranking for Compliance-Aware Autonomous Driving Trajectory Selection
Researchers have developed RECTOR, a novel reranking system designed to improve the safety and compliance of autonomous driving trajectory selections. This system prioritizes safety, legal adherence, and comfort rules over simple model confidence scores. By employing a tiered rulebook and a differentiable proxy mechanism, RECTOR significantly reduces violations compared to confidence-only methods, even under adversarial conditions. AI
