Researchers have introduced Self-Supervised Imitation Learning (SSIL), a novel framework for end-to-end autonomous driving that does not require labeled driving commands or pre-trained models. SSIL generates pseudo steering angle data using vehicle pose estimations from LiDAR sensors and incorporates a cross-attention-based conditioning approach (CACA) to integrate high-level instructions with visual information. Experiments on benchmark datasets show SSIL achieves comparable accuracy to supervised learning methods, with its pseudo-label predictor outperforming existing PID controllers and CACA surpassing other conditioning techniques.
