Locating and Repairing Domain Shift in VLM Trajectory Planning
Locating and Repairing Domain Shift in VLM Trajectory Planning
This research introduces MoLaRx (Modality-Layer Repair), a framework designed to address domain shift in Vision-Language Model (VLM) trajectory planners.
The authors propose MoLaRx, a framework that localizes and repairs domain shift in Vision-Language Model trajectory planners by analyzing structured variations across modality and layer axes, demonstrating improved performance over uniform adaptation baselines on cross-city benchmarks.

We evaluate MoLaRx on three architecturally distinct VLMs (LFM2-VL-1.6B, Qwen2-VL-2B, and PaliGemma2-3B) across two cross-city benchmarks (nuScenes and Argoverse 2).
