Abstract

An example method includes (a) obtaining an object detection from a perception system that describes an object in an environment of the autonomous vehicle; (b) obtaining, from a reference dataset, a label that describes a reference position of the object in the environment; (c) determining a plurality of component divergence values respectively for a plurality of divergence metrics, wherein a respective divergence value characterizes a respective difference between the object detection and the label; (d) providing the plurality of component divergence values to a machine-learned model to generate a score that indicates an aggregate divergence between the object detection and the label, wherein the machine-learned model includes a plurality of learned parameters defining an influence of the plurality of component divergence values on the score; (e) evaluating a quality of a match between the object detection and the label based on the score.
