Imitation Learning for Autonomous Driving in CARLA

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 15, 2026 · UTC

Behavioral cloning trains a policy offline on expert demonstrations, but deployment is closed loop: each action affects the observations the policy receives next. We study how much closed-loop driving competence a compact multimodal policy can acquire from offline demonstrations in the CARLA simulator. The policy uses five-frame histories of RGB images, LiDAR, vehicle telemetry, and lane waypoints to predict throttle, brake, and steering at 20 Hz. Demonstrations were collected in three stages, ending with a systematic route-generation procedure that enumerates spawn points and feasible maneuve
