Abstract: A system and device for a removably attachable golf cart cooler. Embodiments of the golf cart cooler provide for a soft-shell cooler that is removably attachable to the front of a motorized golf cart, the cooler comprising a continuous retention strap positioned across the exterior of the cooler. The continuous retention strap may comprise fasteners for attaching the golf cart cooler to a golf cart. While attached, the continuous strap can help to distribute weight across the entire length of the continuous strap, alleviating tension on the fasteners. Additionally, the continuous strap can act as a retention member, aiding in maintaining the shape and rigidity of the cooler and preventing contents from falling out.

Abstract: Techniques for top-down scene discrimination are discussed. A system receives scene data associated with an environment proximate a vehicle. The scene data is input to a convolutional neural network (CNN) discriminator trained using a generator and a classification of the output of the CNN discriminator. The CNN discriminator generates an indication of whether the scene data is a generated scene or a captured scene. If the scene data is data generated scene, the system generates a caution notification indicating that a current environmental situation is different from any previous situations. Additionally, the caution notification is communicated to at least one of a vehicle system or a remote vehicle monitoring system.

Abstract: Techniques for top-down scene generation are discussed. A generator component may receive multi-dimensional input data associated with an environment. The generator component may generate, based at least in part on the multi-dimensional input data, a generated top-down scene. A discriminator component receives the generated top-down scene and a real top-down scene. The discriminator component generates binary classification data indicating whether an individual scene in the scene data is classified as generated or classified as real. The binary classification data is provided as a loss to the generator component and the discriminator component.

Abstract: Techniques for determining an error model associated with a system/subsystem of vehicle controller are discussed herein. To determine whether a complex system (which may be uninspectable) is able to operate safely, errors can be introduced into operating regimes (scenarios) to validate the safe operation of such a system. By comparing captured and/or generated vehicle data with ground truth data, an error of the system can be statistically quantified and modeled. The statistical model can be used to introduce errors to the scenario to perturb the scenario to test, for example, a vehicle controller. Based on a simulation of the vehicle controlled in the perturbed scenario, a safety metric associated with the vehicle controller can be determined, as well as causes for any failures.
