Abstract
Systems and methods for vehicle behavior prediction include an imaging device that captures images of a vehicle in traffic. A processing device including policy stored in a memory of the processing device in communication with the imaging device stochastically models future behavior of the vehicle based on the captured images. A policy simulator in communication with the processing device simulates the policy as a reparameterized pushforward policy of a base distribution. An evaluator receives the simulated policy from the policy simulator and performs cross-entropy optimization on the future behavior of the vehicle by analyzing the simulated policy and updating the policy according to cross-entropy error. An alert system retrieves the future behavior of the vehicle and recognizes hazardous trajectories of the future trajectories and generates an audible alert using a speaker.
