Abstract

Systems and methods for trajectory planning for an autonomous vehicle, may include: computing features for each of the plurality of candidate trajectories; computing scores for the features of the candidate trajectories, wherein the scores are based on parameter values associated with their corresponding final trajectories; determining, based on the computed scores, a trajectory of the candidate trajectories to be used as a warm-start trajectory for trajectory optimization and applying the warm-start trajectory to develop a final trajectory for the vehicle; and autonomously operating the autonomous vehicle in accordance with the final trajectory.
