Driving Like Yourself: A Benchmark for Closed-Loop Personalized End-to-End Autonomous Driving
arXiv:2602.18757v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Human driving behavior is inherently diverse, yet most end-to-end autonomous driving (E2E-AD) systems learn a single average driving style, neglecting individual differences. Achieving personalized E2E-AD faces challenges across three levels: limited real-world datasets with individual-level annotations, a lack of quantitative metrics for evaluating personal driving styles, and the absence of algorithms that can learn stylized representations from users' trajectories. To address these gaps, we propose Person2Drive, a comprehensive personalized E2E-AD platform and benchmark. It includes an open-source, flexible data collection system that simulates realistic scenarios to generate scalable, diverse personalized driving datasets; style vector-based evaluation metrics with Maximum Mean Discrepancy and KL divergence to comprehensively quantify individual driving behaviors; and a personalized E2E-AD framework with a style reward model that efficiently adapts E2E models for safe and individualized driving. Crucially, our framework enables plug-and-play personalization by fine-tuning only the trajectory prediction head, preserving the pretrained base model and ensuring safety. Extensive experiments demonstrate that Person2Drive enables fine-grained analysis and effective personalization, while preserving driving performance and success rate even in challenging scenarios.
