Abstract
Systems and methods for parallel autonomy of a vehicle are disclosed herein. One embodiment receives input data, the input data including at least one of sensor data and structured input data; encodes the input data into an intermediate embedding space using a first neural network; inputs the intermediate embedding space to a first behavior model and a second behavior model, the first behavior model producing a first behavior output, the second behavior model producing a second behavior output; combines the first behavior output and the second behavior output using an ideal-behavior model to produce an ideal behavior for the vehicle; and controls one or more aspects of operation of the vehicle based, at least in part, on the ideal behavior.
