1、End-to-end Autonomous Driving Industry Report,2024-2025D End-to-end intelligent driving research:How Li Auto becomes a leader from an intelligent driving followerThere are two types of end-to-end autonomous driving:global(one-stage)and segmented(two-stage)types.The former has a clear concept,and muc
2、h lower R&D cost than the latter,because it does not require any manually annotated data sets but relies on multimodal foundation models developed by Google,META,Alibaba and OpenAI.Standing on the shoulders of these technology giants,the performance of global end-to-end autonomous driving is much be
3、tter than segmented end-to-end autonomous driving,but at extremely high deployment cost.Segmented end-to-end autonomous driving still uses the traditional CNN backbone network to extract features for perception,and adopts end-to-end path planning.Although its performance is not as good as global end
4、-to-end autonomous driving,it has lower deployment cost.However,the deployment cost of segmented end-to-end autonomous driving is still very high compared with the current mainstream traditional“BEV+OCC+decision tree” UniADAs a representative of global end-to-end autonomous driving,Waymo EMMA direct
