20240262385. SPATIO-TEMPORAL POSE/OBJECT DATABASE_simplified_abstract_(waymo llc)
Inventor(s): Brandyn Allen White of Mountain View CA (US) for waymo llc, Aleksei Timofeev of Campbell CA (US) for waymo llc
IPC Code(s): B60W60/00, B60W30/095, G06N3/08
CPC Code(s): B60W60/001
Abstract: methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for selecting actions for an agent at a specific real-world location using historical data generated at the same real-world location. one of the methods includes determining a current geolocation of an agent within an environment; obtaining historical data for geolocations in a vicinity of the current geolocation of the agent from a database that maintains historical data for a plurality of geolocations within the environment, the historical data for each geolocation comprising observations generated at least in part from sensor readings of the geolocation captured by vehicles navigating through the environment; generating an embedding of the obtained historical data; and providing the embedding as an input to a policy decision-making system that selects actions to be performed by the agent.

IPC Code(s): B60W60/00, B60W50/00, G05B13/02
CPC Code(s): B60W60/0027
Abstract: example embodiments relate to a method for cut-in identification and classification. an example embodiment includes a obtaining operational data about one or more vehicles; based on the operational data, identifying the presence of one or more cut-ins within the operational data; extracting, from the operational data, cut-in data that depicts one or more of the cut-ins identified within the operational data; and, based on the extracted cut-in data, training a model for controlling an autonomous vehicle. identifying the presence of a given cut-in includes: determining that at least one vertex of a bounding box surrounding a vehicle was located more than a threshold distance within a lane being navigated by a given vehicle; and determining that the ability of the given vehicle to maintain its course and speed was impeded by the presence of the particular additional vehicle within the lane.
