Abstract
Disclosed are aspects of a method, carried out by a vehicle data recording device, that includes downloading, from a host data collecting system, a recording target and determining a plurality of possible routes for the vehicle. The method also includes, for each route, generating a route encoding in numerical values an information on predicted values of the route for metrics, a metric being a function assigning a value representing an amount of progress in achieving an elementary recording target to a piece of data. The method additionally includes providing the route encodings and additional environmental information independent of the routes to a reinforcement learning agent that selects one of the routes to optimize a reward. The method further includes recording data from in-vehicle sources while the vehicle drives along the selected route and uploading at least part of the recording data to the host data collecting system.
