Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for controlling an autonomous vehicle. For instance, a first probability distribution may be generated for the vehicle at a first future point in time using a generative model for predicting expected behaviors of objects and a set of characteristics for the vehicle at an initial time expected to be perceived by an observer. Planning system software of the vehicle may be used to generate a trajectory for the vehicle to follow. A second probability distribution may be generated for a second future point in time using the generative model based on the trajectory and a set of characteristics for the vehicle at the first future point expected to be perceived by the observer. A surprise assessment may be generated by comparing the first probability distribution to the second probability distribution. The vehicle may be controlled based on the surprise assessment.

Abstract: A simulation may be used to determine a difference between progress of a manually-driven vehicle and progress of a simulated autonomous vehicle. The method includes retrieving log data collected for the manually-driven vehicle driving along a route, generating a plurality of path segments for a portion of the route. The plurality of path segments corresponds to points in a lane that the manually-driven vehicle traveled through on the portion of the route. The method also includes running, using a software of the autonomous vehicle, a simulation of the autonomous vehicle driving along the plurality of path segments, extracting metrics from the log data and the simulation, and determining the difference between a first progress of the manually-driven vehicle and a second progress of the simulated autonomous vehicle based on the metrics.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a method of generating and following planned trajectories for an autonomous vehicle. For instance, a baseline for a planned trajectory that the autonomous vehicle can use to follow a route to a destination may be determined. A stopping point corresponding to a traffic control that will cause the autonomous vehicle to come to a stop using the baseline may be determined. Sensor data identifying objects and their locations may be received. A plurality of constraints may be generated based on the sensor data. A planned trajectory may be generated using the baseline, the stopping point, and the plurality of constraints, wherein constraints beyond the stopping point are ignored.
