Abstract: Systems and methods for navigating a host vehicle are disclosed. In one implementation, a system includes a processor configured to receive an image captured by a camera onboard the host vehicle; provide the image to a trained model configured to generate an output identifying two or more target trajectories associated with each of the two or more features represented in the image; determine, based on the output generated by the trained model, location information for the two or more target trajectories associated with each of the two or more features; determine at least one navigational action for the host vehicle based on the location information determined for at least one of the target trajectories; and cause the host vehicle to implement the at least one navigational action.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for performing knowledge distillation in the context of machine learning model training. A fixed pool of “teacher” models are provided, which meet predefined conditions. A machine learning model is then trained to provide a “student.” by applying a random selection of the teachers to unlabeled sample data, which accelerates the training process. The algorithm implemented for this purpose ensures that the trained student provides low error.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for vehicle navigation. In one implementation, at least one processing device may receive, from a camera of the host vehicle, at least one captured image representative of an environment of the host vehicle. The processing device may analyze one or more pixels of the at least one captured image to determine whether the one or more pixels represent at least a portion of a target vehicle. For pixels determined to represent at least a portion of the target vehicle, the processing device may determine one or more estimated distance values from the one or more pixels to at least one edge of a face of the target vehicle; and generate, based on the analysis of the one or more pixels, including the determined one or more distance values associated with the one or more pixels, at least a portion of a boundary relative to the target vehicle.

In one implementation, at least one processor may receive, from a camera of a vehicle, at least one image captured from an environment of the vehicle. The processor may analyze the at least one image to identify a road topology feature in the environment of the vehicle represented in the at least one image and at least one point associated with the at least one image. Based on the identified road topology feature, the processor may determine an estimated path in the environment of the vehicle associated with the at least one point. The processor may further cause the vehicle to implement a navigational action based on the estimated path.

Abstract: In one implementation, a method includes receiving at least one image captured by a camera of a host vehicle from an environment of the host vehicle; analyzing the at least one image to identify a region of interest; selecting a portion of the at least one image based on the region of interest; receiving map information associated with the environment of the host vehicle; providing the portion of the at least one image and the map information to a trained system; and receiving an output provided by the trained system. The output includes an identifier of an object in the environment of the host vehicle and location information for the object relative to the map information. The method further includes causing the host vehicle to initiate at least one navigational action based on the identifier of the object and the location information for the object.
