Abstract: A trajectory planning system can be used to select a trajectory for an autonomous vehicle. The trajectory planning system may generate multiple trajectories and extract features from the generated trajectories. The trajectory planning system may evaluate the trajectories based on the extracted features and select a trajectory for the vehicle based on the evaluation. The selected trajectory may be used to control the vehicle.

Abstract: Provided are methods for a safety filter for machine learning planners. Example methods can include applying a plurality of safety parameters to a plurality of trajectories generated for an ego vehicle, determining whether the plurality of trajectories are unsafe based at least on application of the plurality of safety parameters to the plurality of trajectories, filtering a trajectory from the plurality of trajectories based at least on determining the trajectory is unsafe, and providing the remaining trajectories from the plurality of trajectories to a machine learning model trained to generate a score for selection of a selected trajectory for the vehicle from the remaining trajectories. Systems and computer program products are also provided.
