Abstract

Techniques and methods associated with performing monitoring associated with operations of autonomous vehicles. For instance, the vehicle may capture sensor data using one or more sensors. The vehicle may then analyze the sensor data using systems in order to determine estimated locations associated with the vehicle and estimated locations associated with situations that may result in a potential unsafe scenario represented by the sensor data. Additionally, the vehicle may determine a distribution of estimated locations associated with the vehicle and using the distributions of estimated locations, the vehicle may determine risk probabilities associated with operations of the vehicle. The vehicle may then redefine or update a route or maneuver to perform when the risk probability exceeds a threshold.
