This application is directed to augmenting training images used for generating vehicle driving models. A computer system obtains a first image of a road, identifies within the first image a drivable area of the road, obtains an image of a traffic safety object, and determines a detour path on the drivable area. The computer system determines positions of a plurality of traffic safety objects to be placed adjacent to the detour path, and generates a second image from the first image by adaptively overlaying a respective copy of the image of the traffic safety object at each of the positions of the plurality of traffic safety objects on the drivable area within the first image. The second image is added to a corpus of training images to be used by a machine learning system to generate a model for facilitating driving a vehicle (e.g., at least partial autonomously).

Data augmentation for detour path configuring

Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media are configured to perform operations comprising determining an image of an environment. A drivable area and boundary information associated with the environment are determined based on the image. At least one boundary for navigation of the environment is generated based on the drivable area and boundary information.

Determining lanes from drivable area

Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media are configured to perform operations comprising determining lane detection data and object detection data associated with an environment; determining a lane template based on the lane detection data; and generating localization data that identifies a location of an object in the environment based on the lane template and the object detection data.

Vehicle localization based on lane templates

Embodiments provide improved techniques for identifying object and vehicle locations on an HD map using camera images. Synthetic data may be generated by populating a high-definition (HD) map with an object. The populated HD map can be projected to a two-dimensional camera view image depicting the object. The HD map and object detection data generated from image (e.g., identifying lane/object locations within the image) can be used to train the model to identify HD map locations of an autonomous vehicle capturing images as it travels, as well as various objects detected from those captured images. Subsequently, a new image may be processed using object detection techniques to detect lane/object locations within the image. An HD map and the detected lane/object data may be provided to the model, which in turn identifies, on the HD map, the locations of the vehicle and the various objects.
