Abstract: The technology relates to detecting and responding to processions. For instance, sensor data identifying two or more objects in an environment of a vehicle may be received. The two or more objects may be determined to be disobeying a predetermined rule in a same way. Based on the determination that the two or more objects are disobeying a predetermined rule, that the two or more objects are involved in a procession may be determined. The vehicle may then be controlled autonomously in order to respond to the procession based on the determination that the two or more objects are involved in a procession.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for predicting the intent of an agent in an environment. One of the methods includes obtaining context data characterizing an environment, the context data comprising data characterizing a plurality of agents in the environment; and generating, based on processing the context data using a neural network having a plurality of network parameters, a respective predicted stationary state classification over a plurality of categories for each of one or more target agents of the plurality of agents in the environment, the categories including one or more categories that indicate that the target agent is a stationary non-participant of traffic in the environment.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for the identification of parkable areas. In one instance, observations of parked vehicles may be identified from logged data. The observations may be used to determine whether a sub-portion of an edge of a roadgraph corresponds to a parkable area. In some examples, the edge may define a drivable area in the roadgraph. In addition, map information is generated based on the determination of whether the sub-portion of the edge corresponds to the parkable area.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to determining relevant content in response to a request for information. One or more computing devices may receive a query requesting information regarding a place of interest and identify a first place which satisfies the query associated with a first database and a set of displayable content associated with the first place within a second database. The one or more computing devices may identify a subset of the displayable content for display in response to the query, the identification of the subset of displayable content comprising determining a ranking for each item of displayable content in the set of displayable content according to the query. The subset of displayable content and the first place may be provided for presentation on a client device.
