Abstract
Tracking perception and/or planning component decisions may comprise generating a data structure in association with an output determined by a component. This data structure, along with one or more data structures generated in association with other outputs generated by the same or different components of the vehicle, may be used to determine a trace that identifies component(s) that determined outputs that affected a particular component's generation of an output. This trace and/or factors identified by the data structure may be used to detect a problem with a component; identify a component or output therefrom that may be causing an error; determine a portion of a component that has been activated and a frequency associated therewith; and/or visualize operation of the vehicle associated with activation of particular components, among additional or alternate uses discussed herein.
