Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product aspects for enabling an autonomous vehicle (AV) to detect objects and forecast their predicted positions. The system can monitor an object within a vicinity of the AV. A plurality of trajectories predicting paths the object will take at a future time can be generated, the plurality of trajectories being based on a generated three-dimensional (3D) point cloud map indicating current and past characteristics of the object. Using a learned model, a forecasted position of the object at an instance in time can be generated along one or more of the plurality of trajectories. A maneuver for the AV can be performed based on the forecasted position.
