Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to autonomous vehicle service assignment simulations using simulated remote operators. In particular, a computing system comprising one or more computing devices can obtain data associated with a simulated autonomous vehicle to use within a simulation environment based at least in part on a service assignment. The computing system can generate one or more simulated remote assistance operators. The computing system can initiate a simulation of a service assignment using the data associated with the simulated autonomous vehicle to perform the service assignment within the simulation environment. The computing system can provide one or more simulated events from the one or more simulated remote assistance operators to the simulated autonomous vehicle. The computing system can determine whether the simulated autonomous vehicle has successfully completed the service assignment based at least in part on the current state of the simulation.
