Abstract

In one embodiment, motion planning and control data is received, indicating that an autonomous vehicle is to move from a first point to a second point of a path. The motion planning and control data describes a plurality of routes from the first point to the second point within the path. For each of the routes, a simulation of the route is performed in view of physical characteristics of the autonomous vehicle to generate a simulated route. A controlling error is calculated, the controlling error representing a discrepancy between the route and the simulated route. One of the routes is selected based on controlling errors between the routes and associated simulated routes. The autonomous vehicle is operated to move from the first point to the second point according to the selected route.
