| contents | Safety-critical traffic scenarios are of great practical relevance to evaluating the robustness of autonomous driving (AD) systems. Given that these long-tail events are extremely rare in real-world traffic data, there is a growing body of work dedicated to the automatic traffic scenario generation. However, nearly all existing algorithms for generating safety-critical scenarios rely on snippets of previously recorded traffic events, transforming normal traffic flow into accident-prone situations directly. In other words, safety-critical traffic scenario generation is hindsight and not applicable to newly encountered and open-ended traffic events.In this paper, we propose the Deep Motion Factorization (DeepMF) framework, which extends static safety-critical driving scenario generation to closed-loop and interactive adversarial traffic simulation. DeepMF casts safety-critical traffic simulation as a Bayesian factorization that includes the assignment of hazardous traffic participants, the motion prediction of selected opponents, the reaction estimation of autonomous vehicle (AV) and the probability estimation of the accident occur. All the aforementioned terms are calculated using decoupled deep neural networks, with inputs limited to the current observation and historical states. Consequently, DeepMF can effectively and efficiently simulate safety-critical traffic scenarios at any triggered time and for any duration by maximizing the compounded posterior probability of traffic risk. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DeepMF excels in terms of risk management, flexibility, and diversity, showcasing outstanding performance in simulating a wide range of realistic, high-risk traffic scenarios. |
