  • Patent number: 11958501
    Abstract: Techniques relating to performance-based metrics for evaluating system quality are described. In an example, sensor data associated with an environment within which a vehicle is positioned is received. A performance metric associated with a trajectory, indicative of a performed behavior of the vehicle, can be determined and a correctness metric can be determined based at least in part on the performance metric. The correctness metric can represent a correctness of the performed behavior. Modification(s) to component(s) and/or system(s), or portions thereof, of the vehicle can be affected based at least in part on the correctness metric.

  • Patent number: 11603095
    Abstract: Techniques for controlling a vehicle based on a collision avoidance algorithm are discussed herein. The vehicle receives sensor data and can determine that the sensor data represents an object in an environment through which the vehicle is travelling. A computing device associated with the vehicle determines a collision probability between the vehicle and the object at predicted locations of the vehicle and object at a first time. Updated locations of the vehicle and object can be determined, and a second collision probability can be determined. The vehicle is controlled based at least in part on the collision probabilities.
