Abstract
System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to coordinating and optimizing prediction by a model using intermediate data and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications that improves bandwidth utilization. In one embodiment, a method includes processing acquired data, by a subject vehicle using a prediction model, to execute a vehicle task associated with navigating a driving scene. The method also includes extracting processed data according to the acquired data from intermediate activations of layers within the prediction model according to a cooperation model. The method also includes quantifying relevancy of the processed data, for a target vehicle, to select a subset using the cooperation model. The method also includes communicating the subset to a selected vehicle having the prediction model for additional prediction according to the relevancy and available resources to transmit the subset.
