The field of motion planning is moving towards more robust and efficient methods for navigating dynamic environments. Researchers are focusing on developing frameworks that can handle uncertainties in the behavior of other agents, with a emphasis on multimodal predictions and active probing. This allows for more informed decision-making and improved performance in complex scenarios. Another key direction is the development of parallel optimization methods, which can significantly speed up trajectory optimization and enable real-time planning. Additionally, game-theoretic approaches are being explored to model interactions between agents and handle intentional uncertainties. Noteworthy papers in this area include:

• A novel framework that combines trajectory planning with multimodal predictions and active probing, which has been shown to successfully navigate complex traffic scenarios.
• A parallel optimization method that reduces the time complexity of trajectory optimization and achieves a tenfold speedup for large-scale trajectories.
• A game-theoretic method that models interactions between agents under intentional uncertainties and demonstrates high efficiency and scalability in simulations and experiments.
