摘要
End-to-end driving policies form structured internal representations of traffic, ego behavior, and road constraints. These representations offer a monitoring interface for anticipating failures, complementing risk signals from trajectories, controls, and manually designed features. We introduce the Structured Representation Probe (SRP), a lightweight monitor that reads actor, ego, and map representations from a frozen policy. SRP learns a separate linear risk direction for each source and aggregates element scores through cardinality-normalized log-mean-exp pooling, retaining sensitivity to salient evidence while reducing dependence on token count. Event-window supervision links the readout to upcoming hard failures, and auxiliary event type heads jointly train the source directions across failure modes. Online alerting uses a single generic score without modifying the driving policy. Bench2Drive experiments on DriveTransformer, UniAD, and VAD show higher frame-level PR-AUC and ROC-AUC than the evaluated runtime baselines. On DriveTransformer at a horizon of 2 seconds, ROC-AUC reaches 0.833 versus 0.715 for temporal consistency, with 2.67% readout runtime overhead. The trained probes also retain the ability to distinguish impending failures on new routes.
