  • Publication number: 20210182604
    Abstract: Systems and methods for predicting user interaction with vehicles. A computing device receives an image and a video segment of a road scene, the first at least one of an image and a video segment being taken from a perspective of a participant in the road scene and then generates stimulus data based on the image and the video segment. Stimulus data is transmitted to a user interface and response data is received, which includes at least one of an action and a likelihood of the action corresponding to another participant in the road scene. The computing device aggregates a subset of the plurality of response data to form statistical data and a model is created based on the statistical data. The model is applied to another image or video segment and a prediction of user behavior in the another image or video segment is generated.

  • Publication number: 20200247432
    Abstract: A system performs modeling and simulation of non-stationary traffic entities for testing and development of modules used in an autonomous vehicle system. The system uses a machine learning based model that predicts hidden context attributes for traffic entities that may be encountered by a vehicle in traffic. The system generates simulation data for testing and development of modules that help navigate autonomous vehicles. The generated simulation data may be image or video data including representations of traffic entities, for example, pedestrians, bicyclists, and other vehicles. The system may generate simulation data using generative adversarial neural networks.

  • Publication number: 20200249677
    Abstract: An autonomous vehicle uses probabilistic neural networks to predict hidden context attributes associated with traffic entities. The hidden context represents behavior of the traffic entities in the traffic. The probabilistic neural network is configured to receive an image of traffic as input and generate output representing hidden context for a traffic entity displayed in the image. The system executes the probabilistic neural network to generate output representing hidden context for traffic entities encountered while navigating through traffic. The system determines a measure of uncertainty for the output values. The autonomous vehicle uses the measure of uncertainty generated by the probabilistic neural network during navigation.

  • Publication number: 20200239026
    Abstract: An autonomous vehicle uses machine learning based models to predict hidden context attributes associated with traffic entities. The system uses the hidden context to predict behavior of people near a vehicle in a way that more closely resembles how human drivers would judge the behavior. The system determines an activation threshold value for a braking system of the autonomous vehicle based on the hidden context. The system modifies a world model based on the hidden context predicted by the machine learning based model. The autonomous vehicle is safely navigated, such that the vehicle stays at least a threshold distance away from traffic entities.
