Abstract

Techniques are provided for autonomous vehicle operation using linear temporal logic. The techniques include using one or more processors of a vehicle to store a linear temporal logic expression defining an operating constraint for operating the vehicle. The vehicle is located at a first spatiotemporal location. The one or more processors are used to receive a second spatiotemporal location for the vehicle. The one or more processors are used to identify a motion segment for operating the vehicle from the first spatiotemporal location to the second spatiotemporal location. The one or more processors are used to determine a value of the linear temporal logic expression based on the motion segment. The one or more processors are used to generate an operational metric for operating the vehicle in accordance with the motion segment based on the determined value of the linear temporal logic expression.
