Abstract

A method of generating an output trajectory of an ego vehicle is described. The method includes extracting high-level features from a bird-view image of a traffic environment of the ego vehicle. The method also includes generating, using an automaton generative network, an automaton including an automaton state distribution describing a behavior of the ego vehicle in the traffic environment according to the high-level features. The method further includes generating the output trajectory of the ego vehicle according to extracted bird-view features of the bird-view image and the automaton state distribution describing the behavior of the ego vehicle in the traffic environment.
