    摘要: Systems and methods for autonomous vehicle testing are provided. In one example embodiment, a computer implemented method includes obtaining, by a computing system including one or more computing devices, simulated perception data indicative of one or more simulated states of at least one simulated object within a surrounding environment of an autonomous vehicle. The computer-implemented method includes determining, by the computing system, a motion of the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the simulated perception data. The computer-implemented method includes causing, by the computing system, the autonomous vehicle to travel in accordance with the determined motion of the autonomous vehicle through the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle.

    摘要: The present disclosure is directed to altering vehicle paths. In particular, a computing system can access map data for a geographic area. The computing system can obtain target zone data describing a target zone within the geographic area. The computing system can determine an altered nominal path to traverse the target zone. The computing system can designate a portion of the altered nominal path as a designated action region associated with the target zone. The computing system can generate a longitudinal plan for an autonomous vehicle through the geographic area based on the altered nominal path. The computing system can generate a target velocity for one or more portions of the nominal path within the designated action region. The computing system can generate a trajectory for the autonomous vehicle based on the target velocity and the altered nominal path.

    摘要: Systems and methods for vehicle motion planning based on uncertainty are provided. A method can include obtaining scene data descriptive of one or more objects within a surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle. The method can include determining one or more subproblems based at least in part on the scene data. In some implementation, each of the one or more subproblems can correspond to at least one object within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle. The method can include generating one or more branching policies based at least in part on the one or more subproblems. In some implementations, each of the one or more branching policies can include scene data associated with the autonomous vehicle and one or more objects within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle. The method can include determining one or more costs associated each of the one or more branching policies. The method can include selecting a motion plan based at least in part on the one or more costs associated with each of the one or more branching policies. The method can include providing the motion plan for use in controlling a motion of the autonomous vehicle.

    摘要: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for routing an autonomous vehicle. A vehicle autonomy system may generate first route data describing a first route for the autonomous vehicle to a first target location and control the autonomous vehicle using the first route data. The vehicle autonomy system may determine that the autonomous vehicle is within a threshold of the first target location and select a second target location associated with at least a second stopping location. The vehicle autonomy system may generate second route data describing a route extension of the first route from the first target location to the second target location and control the autonomous vehicle using the second route data.

    摘要: The present disclosure is directed to a system for autonomous vehicle control for reverse motion. The system accesses a route with one or more route sections, the one or more route sections including a reverse driving section through an environment. The system accesses physical model data representing a position and actual orientation of the autonomous vehicle in the environment. The system modifies the physical model data to generate a simulated orientation for the autonomous vehicle based on a direction associated with the reverse driving section. The system transmits data associated with the reverse driving section of the accessed route and the modified physical model data to a motion planner. The system receives from the motion planner, one or more control signals for the autonomous vehicle. The system transmits the one or more control signals to a vehicle control system of the autonomous vehicle.
