Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for detecting and predicting the motion of objects within the surrounding environment of a system such as an autonomous vehicle. For example, an autonomous vehicle can obtain sensor data from a plurality of sensors comprising at least two different sensor modalities (e.g., RADAR, LIDAR, camera) and fused together to create a fused sensor sample. The fused sensor sample can then be provided as input to a machine learning model (e.g., a machine learning model for object detection and/or motion prediction). The machine learning model can have been trained by independently applying sensor dropout to the at least two different sensor modalities. Outputs received from the machine learning model in response to receipt of the fused sensor samples are characterized by improved generalization performance over multiple sensor modalities, thus yielding improved performance in detecting objects and predicting their future locations, as well as improved navigation performance.

Abstract: An autonomous platform can obtain sensor data descriptive of an actor in an environment of an autonomous vehicle and at least a portion of the environment of the autonomous vehicle that does not include the actor, the sensor data comprising at least one sweep of the environment of the autonomous vehicle; process the sensor data with a machine-learned perception model to generate a detection of the actor and one or more predicted future velocities; and determine a motion trajectory for the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the detection and the one or more predicted future velocities.

Abstract: Various examples are directed to systems and methods for controlling an autonomous vehicle comprising a tractor and a trailer. For example, a system may determine that a line from a position of a first sensor on the autonomous vehicle to a position of a first actor in an environment of the autonomous vehicle intersects the trailer. The system may determine that the first actor is in a blind spot of the autonomous vehicle, generate a motion plan for the autonomous vehicle, and control the autonomous vehicle in accordance with the motion plan.

Abstract: Systems, methods, tangible non-transitory computer-readable media, and devices for autonomous vehicle operation are provided. For example, a computing system can receive object data that includes portions of sensor data. The computing system can determine, in a first stage of a multiple stage classification using hardware components, one or more first stage characteristics of the portions of sensor data based on a first machine-learned model. In a second stage of the multiple stage classification, the computing system can determine second stage characteristics of the portions of sensor data based on a second machine-learned model. The computing system can generate an object output based on the first stage characteristics and the second stage characteristics. The object output can include indications associated with detection of objects in the portions of sensor data.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improved tracking of articulated vehicles can obtain, through one or more sensor systems onboard a vehicle, sensor data descriptive of an environment of the vehicle, the environment including an articulated vehicle having at least a first portion and a second portion; generate based on the sensor data, first state data for the first portion of the articulated vehicle and second state data for the second portion of the articulated vehicle; determine an articulated vehicle relationship between the first portion and the second portion based on the first state data for the first portion and the second state data for the second portion; generate, using an articulated vehicle motion model, synthetic motion data for the second portion based on the first state data for the first portion; and update the second state data of the second portion based on the synthetic motion data.
