Generating diverse and comprehensive interacting agents to evaluate the decision-making modules of autonomous vehicles~(AV) is essential for  safe and robust planning  . Due to efficiency and safety concerns, most researchers choose to train adversary agents in simulators and generate test cases to interact with evaluated AVs. However, most existing methods fail to provide both natural and critical interaction behaviors in various traffic scenarios. To tackle this problem, we propose a styled generative model RouteGAN that generates diverse interactions by controlling the vehicles separately with desired styles. By altering its style coefficients, the model can generate trajectories with different safety levels serve as an online planner. Experiments show that our model can generate diverse interactions in various scenarios. We evaluate different planners with our model by testing their collision rate in interaction with RouteGAN planners of multiple critical levels.

Due to efficiency and safety concerns, most researchers choose to train interactive adversary~(competitive or weakly competitive) agents in simulators and generate test cases to interact with evaluated AVs.
