Abstract

There are provided techniques including a system, method, and computer-readable medium for autonomous vehicle control based on a probability of collision. The method may include the steps of: receiving a vehicle trajectory associated with a vehicle and an object trajectory associated with an object, determining a vehicle probability distribution associated with the vehicle at a first time along the vehicle trajectory and an object probability distribution associated with the object at the first time along the object trajectory, determining a combined probability distribution based on the vehicle and object probability distributions, determining a relative position between the vehicle and the object at the first time based on the vehicle and object positions, determining a probability value based on the combined probability distribution and the relative position, and controlling the vehicle based on the probability value.
