GuidedWAM steers frozen world action models toward differentiable driving objectives during sampling, without changing model weights. At each step, it evaluates an objective on the estimated clean action plan and uses the gradient to guide generation. On NAVSIM v2 hard-split, camera-based guidance improved all three models by 1.8–3.6 EPDMS points, in open-loop benchmark testing only.
