Precise Drive with VLM: First Prize Solution for PRCV 2024 Drive LM challenge

Abstract

This technical report outlines the methodologies we applied for the PRCV Challenge, focusing on cognition and decision-making in driving scenarios. We employed InternVL-2.0, a pioneering open-source multi-modal model, and enhanced it by refining both the model input and training methodologies. For the input data, we strategically concatenated and formatted the multi-view images. It is worth mentioning that we utilized the coordinates of the original images without transformation. In terms of model training, we initially pre-trained the model on publicly available autonomous driving scenario datasets to bolster its alignment capabilities of the challenge tasks, followed by fine-tuning on the DriveLM-nuscenes Dataset. During the fine-tuning phase, we innovatively modified the loss function to enhance the model's precision in predicting coordinate values. These approaches ensure that our model possesses advanced cognitive and decision-making capabilities in driving scenarios. Consequently, our model achieved a score of 0.6064, securing the first prize on the competition's final results.
