Abstract

A first distinct vehicle operational scenario is identified for an autonomous vehicle (AV). A first set of candidate vehicle control actions are received from a model that provides a first solution to the first distinct vehicle operational scenario. An action is selected from the first set of candidate vehicle control actions. The AV is controlled based on the action. The first solution is obtained offline in a first idealized situation that is decoupled from a current context of the AV.
