Abstract:
Data representing a set of predicted trajectories and a planned trajectory for an autonomous vehicle is obtained. A predictability score for the planned trajectory can be determined based on a comparison of the planned trajectory to the set of predicted trajectories for the autonomous vehicle. The predictability score indicates a level of predictability of the planned trajectory. A determination can be made, based at least on the predictability score, whether to initiate travel with the autonomous vehicle along the planned trajectory. In response to determining to initiate travel with the autonomous vehicle along the planned trajectory, a control system can be directed to maneuver the autonomous vehicle along the planned trajectory.
