TOKYO, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — [TIER IV](https://tier4.co.jp/en/), the pioneering
force behind open-source software for autonomous driving, will showcase a solution
for software-defined vehicles (SDVs) that integrates AI, data, and computing at 
Automotive World 2026, to be held at Makuhari Messe from September 9 to 11, 2026.
As part of its exhibition, TIER IV will introduce the autolabeling function of its
[Co-MLOps platform](https://co-mlops.tier4.jp/), a data-sharing platform, as well
as its reference E2E AI model, an end-to-end (E2E) autonomous driving AI model developed
using data processed through the platform. The demonstration will run the reference
E2E AI model on an automotive computer, showcasing an integrated SDV solution that
covers the entire process, from data collection and processing to the development
of the E2E autonomous driving AI model and its deployment on an automotive computing
platform.

**Toward the development of autonomous driving systems for passenger vehicles**

As the use of AI in autonomous driving technology continues to advance rapidly, 
high-quality and diverse datasets with accurate labeling are becoming increasingly
important for enabling AI to correctly interpret its surroundings. Equally important
is an efficient framework for developing autonomous driving AI models using these
datasets. To deploy autonomous driving AI models in mass-produced vehicles, including
passenger vehicles, it is also essential to run these models efficiently on automotive
computing platforms.

To accelerate the development of autonomous driving AI, TIER IV launched the Co-
MLOps platform in January 2024 and has been working with partners to collect and
share driving data. TIER IV is working toward an integrated SDV solution that combines
AI, data, and computing by automatically labeling driving data collected through
the platform, efficiently developing the E2E autonomous driving AI model using the
labeled data, and establishing an environment for deploying the model on an automotive
computing platform.

**Key features of the autolabeling function**

Using driving data as training data for autonomous driving AI models requires the
collection of large volumes of driving data and accurate labeling to enable AI to
correctly interpret the data. The autolabeling function automatically labels a wide
range of objects and background elements in driving data, including vehicles, pedestrians,
road surfaces and structures, so that they can be accurately recognized by AI.

The function can generate millions of labels instantly and with consistent quality,
enabling efficient data processing even when new regions or sensors are added or
the volume of data increases. By automating the enormous amount of labeling work
that has traditionally been performed manually, the function is expected to reduce
development costs and accelerate the development of autonomous driving AI models.

To improve the accuracy of autonomous driving AI models, TIER IV supplements difficult-
to-collect driving data, such as rare scenarios directly associated with collision
risks and data from adverse weather conditions, with synthetic data generated using
NVIDIA Cosmos. The autolabeling function is also used to label this generated data.

For more details on the autolabeling function and the use of NVIDIA Cosmos to supplement
driving data, please see TIER IV’s tech blog, [Building a dataset foundation for autonomous driving with NVIDIA Cosmos](https://tier4.co.jp/en/updates/technology/20260807-comlops-dataset-foundation-for-autonomous-driving-with-nvidia-cosmos).

**Key features of the reference E2E AI model**

The reference E2E AI model does not rely on high-definition maps and uses only images
captured by automotive cameras to perform a range of functions, from a bird’s-eye-
view understanding of the surrounding environment to trajectory generation, using
a single neural network. The model supports 3D road and object recognition, the 
generation of occupancy maps that determine whether obstacles are present in each
cell when the environment captured by camera images is divided into a grid, and 
vehicle trajectory prediction. Its architecture is also well suited to automotive
computing, making it easier to deploy on actual system-on-chips.

The model is developed through an agentic AI-driven development process. Humans 
specify what to build, while an AI agent takes the lead in developing the E2E autonomous
driving AI model, incorporating automatically labeled driving data, data transformation
and cleansing, implementation optimization, and model management. The agent autonomously
runs the cycle of training, evaluation, and improvement. By having agentic AI lead
the development process, the model is designed to improve development efficiency
and enable low-cost, rapid prototyping of autonomous driving AI models.

TIER IV is continuing to develop the reference E2E AI model and plans to make it
available to partners participating in the Co-MLOps project.

**Demonstration at Automotive World 2026**

TIER IV will demonstrate technology that automatically labels various objects and
background elements in driving data using the autolabeling function of the Co-MLOps
platform. The demonstration will also run the reference E2E AI model, developed 
using the labeled driving data, on an NVIDIA Jetson Orin, where the model will use
only images from automotive cameras to perform the entire process from a bird’s-
eye-view understanding of the surrounding environment to trajectory generation.

By integrating large-scale driving data collection and processing through the platform
with the continuous development and improvement of the E2E autonomous driving AI
model and its deployment on the automotive computing platform, TIER IV is advancing
the development of an SDV solution designed to support automakers and suppliers 
in the development of autonomous driving systems for mass production in passenger
vehicles.
