Abstract:
Systems, methods, devices, and other techniques for planning a trajectory of a vehicle. A computing system can implement a trajectory planning neural network configured to, at each time step of multiple time steps: obtain a first neural network input and a second neural network input. The first neural network input can characterize a set of waypoints indicated by the waypoint data, and the second neural network input can characterize (a) environmental data that represents a current state of an environment of the vehicle and (b) navigation data that represents a planned navigation route for the vehicle. The trajectory planning neural network may process the first neural network input and the second neural network input to generate a set of output scores, where each output score in the set of output scores corresponds to a different location of a set of possible locations in a vicinity of the vehicle.
