## Abstract (arXiv)

Motion forecasting is a core task in autonomous driving systems, aiming to accurately predict the future trajectories of surrounding agents to ensure driving safety. Existing methods typically process discrete driving scenes independently, neglecting the temporal continuity and historical context correlations inherent in real-world driving environments. This paper proposes PanguMotion, a motion forecasting framework for continuous driving scenarios that integrates Transformer blocks from the Pangu-1B large language model as feature enhancement modules into autonomous driving motion prediction architectures. We conduct experiments on the Argoverse 2 datasets processed by the RealMotion data reorganization strategy, transforming each independent scene into a continuous sequence to mimic real-world driving scenarios.
