RiskWorld advances autonomous driving safety by introducing an object-centric latent world model that directly localizes risk sources through imagined future evolutions rather than relying on indirect behavioral inference or post-hoc geometric checks. By leveraging RSSM-style latent dynamics to decode relation-aware object states, the method achieves superior F1 scores and significantly reduced false alarms while preserving critical planning information even under filtered observations. This research represents a meaningful step forward in machine learning applications for high-stakes robotics and safety-critical systems.
RiskWorld: Object-Centric Latent World Modeling for Autonomous Driving Risk Identification
arXiv:2608.21414v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous driving risk identification aims to determine which observed object is likely to become safety-critical to the ego vehicle. Existing approaches typically predict scene-level accidents, infer risk objects indirectly from ego behavior, or apply geometric checks after trajectory forecasting, without directly using predicted ego--object relations for risk-source localization. We propose RiskWorld, an object-centric latent world model that identifies risk from the imagined evolution of each candidate relative to the ego vehicle. RiskWorld combines pretrained predictive video representations with structured ego--object histories, contextualizes observed interactions, and rolls relation-aware object states into the future using RSSM-style latent dynamics. It decodes the rollout into object-level risk scores, supported by auxiliary future-relation and temporal-risk predictions. Inference uses only observations up to the current time, while logged futures provide training supervision. On RiskBench, RiskWorld achieves the best overall F1 of 63.0\% and the lowest false-alarm rate of 2.1\%. Further analyses show that the learned rollout captures the evolution of object-level risk before critical events, while RiskWorld's selections preserve planning-critical information under filtered observation.
