REARL: A Closed-loop Autonomous Driving Simulation Enhancement Framework with Real Traffic Data and Large Language Models

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 17, 2026 · UTC

Accurate simulation is crucial for autonomous driving development, yet capturing real-world traffic complexity remains challenging. Existing simulators that rely on predefined rules or static data playback struggle with dynamic traffic. CRITICAL uses real traffic data and a large language model (LLM) to adjust the initial simulation configuration, but the simulated distribution still diverges from real traffic as the rollout evolves. We propose REARL, a closed-loop simulation enhancement framework that integrates real traffic data with LLMs. Real traffic data are clustered, and each cluster ce
