Abstract
Determining a localization performance metric using sensor data is described. A vehicle may capture sensor data from one or more sensors of the vehicle. The sensor data may be input into a localization component to determine localization data (e.g., a location/orientation of the vehicle) and auxiliary location data (e.g., residual data indicating a difference between the measured location/orientation and an actual or estimated location/orientation). The auxiliary localization data (which, in some examples, may include residuals associated with various sensor modalities) may be input into a machine learned model. The machine learned model may generate the localization performance metric. The vehicle may determine an action to take based on the localization performance metric. In some examples, the action may be tied to the performance meeting or exceeding a threshold.
