The disclosure includes embodiments for managing vehicles under anomalous driving behavior. In some embodiments, a method includes determining, by the processor, an ego behavior associated with the ego vehicle and a remote behavior associated with a remote vehicle. The method includes calculating a variance between the ego behavior and the remote behavior. The method includes determining a presence of an anomaly based on the variance satisfying a threshold, wherein the satisfying the threshold indicates the ego behavior is incompatible with the remote behavior. The method includes generating a driving management plan which is configured to mitigate the anomaly and is consistent with the ego behavior. The method includes implementing the driving management plan so that the threshold is no longer satisfied.

11628855 · 2023-04-18 · ·

Ground truth data may be too sparse to supervise training of a machine-learned (ML) model enough to achieve an ML model with sufficient accuracy/recall. For example, in some cases, ground truth data may only be available for every third, tenth, or hundredth frame of raw data. Training an ML model to detect a velocity of an object when ground truth data for training is sparse may comprise training the ML model to predict a future position of the object based at least in part on image, radar, and/or lidar data (e.g., for which no ground truth may be available). The ML model may be altered based at least in part on a difference between ground truth data associated with a future time and the future position.
