Recent research has investigated the use of large language models (LLMs) to generate traffic scenarios for autonomous driving. However, pretrained LLMs often fail to align with real-world traffic distributions. In this work, we present TrafficAlign, an automated framework that synthesizes traffic scenarios based on real-world driving videos, performs data validation, and aligns LLMs with the synthesized scenarios. The evaluation shows that traffic scenarios generated by TrafficAlign are highly effective, revealing up to 10.8% more collisions on average across three autonomous driving models than state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, fine-tuning these driving models with TrafficAlign-generated scenarios significantly reduced collision rates by 36.1% compared with the original models. A qualitative study using traffic datasets from six geographically diverse regions shows that TrafficAlign-generated scenarios exhibit strong alignment with corresponding traffic distributions in these regions.
Although Video Large Language Models (Video LLMs) have shown strong performance in video understanding, their efficiency is still limited by the large number of visual tokens. Existing video token compression methods typically rely on frame-wise saliency or heuristic token mergin…
Recent studies on multimodal traffic accident understanding have mainly relied on infrastructure-camera footage, satellite imagery, or structured crash records. However, such data sources are costly to deploy and maintain at large scale, and they cannot objectively capture what t…
Visual grounding with multimodal large language models is commonly formulated as autoregressive coordinate generation, where a model outputs bounding-box coordinates as text given an image and a referring-expression prompt. While this interface is simple and compatible with instr…
While Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated remarkable success in 2D medical image understanding, their extension to 3D volumetric imaging remains hindered by prohibitive annotation costs and dataset opacity. Current data formats, predominantly consisting of…
Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have demonstrated strong perception and reasoning capabilities. However, most existing models focus on isolated objects and neglect structured relationships for efficient target navigation, limiting their performance on visually intensive…
Omni modal large language models (OmniLLMs) have attracted wide attention for their ability to jointly process audio and video, but they generate large token sequences under audio-visual inputs, leading to substantial inference cost. Existing audio-visual token compression method…
