    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for intervention behavior prediction. One of the methods includes receiving data characterizing a scene that includes a first agent and a second agent in an environment. A confounder prediction input generated from the data is processed using a confounder prediction model. A plurality of predicted conditional probability distributions is generated, wherein each predicted conditional probability distribution is conditioned on: (i) a planned intervention by the second agent, and (ii) the confounder variable belonging to a corresponding confounder class. An intervention behavior prediction for the first agent is generated based on the plurality of the predicted conditional probability distributions and the confounder distribution, wherein the intervention behavior prediction includes a probability distribution over the plurality of the possible behaviors for the first agent in reaction to the second agent performing the planned intervention.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for predicting occupancies of agents. One of the methods includes obtaining scene data characterizing a current scene in an environment; and processing a neural network input comprising the scene data using a neural network to generate a neural network output, wherein: the neural network output comprises respective occupancy outputs corresponding to a plurality of agent types at one or more future time points; the occupancy output for each agent type at a first future time point comprises respective occupancy probabilities for a plurality of locations in the environment; and in the occupancy output for each agent type at the first future time point, the respective occupancy probability for each location characterizes a likelihood that an agent of the agent type will occupy the location at the first future time point.

    摘要: Collision avoidance and error determination for a component of an autonomous vehicle comprising receiving a first trajectory, such as to return a vehicle to an intended trajectory, that a vehicle is predicted to follow, based on an offset between the vehicle and a second trajectory associated with the vehicle, such as a reference trajectory. The first trajectory predicts a first movement characteristic (e.g., a position) of the vehicle at a point in time. A second movement characteristic is received, representing an actual movement characteristic of the vehicle at that point in time. A first error between the first and second movement characteristics is determined. Based at least in part on the first error, performance of a model for generating trajectories that a vehicle is predicted to follow is validated.

    摘要: Embodiments of a system/method is disclosed to operate an autonomous driving vehicle (ADV). In one embodiment, a system perceives a driving environment surrounding the ADV using a plurality of sensors mounted on the ADV including one or more obstacles. The system receives traffic signal information from one or more traffic indicators identified within a predetermined radius of the ADV. For each of the one or more obstacles, the system determines if the obstacle is situated on a lane with traffic flow coordinated by the one or more traffic indicators. The system predicts a behavior of the obstacle based on the traffic signal information for the lane. The system plans a trajectory based on the predicted behaviors for the one or more obstacles to control the ADV based on the planned trajectory.

    摘要: A method includes obtaining, from sensor data, map data of a geographic region and multiple trajectories of multiple agents located in the geographic region. The agents and the map data have a corresponding physical location in the geographic region. The method further includes determining, for an agent, an agent route from a trajectory that corresponds to the agent, generating, by an encoder model, an interaction encoding that encodes the trajectories and the map data, and generating, from the interaction encoding, an agent attribute encoding of the agent and the agent route. The method further includes processing the agent attribute encoding to generate positional information for the agent, and updating the trajectory of the agent using the positional information to obtain an updated trajectory.
