Abstract
A prediction component of an autonomous vehicle may detect and use a combination of object attributes and semantic features to determine potential destinations and corresponding potential trajectories for the dynamic objects in an environment. In some examples, the prediction component may analyze sensor data using trained models to determine a number of object attributes for a dynamic object, as well as semantic features associated with the intent or purpose of the dynamic object. Using a combination of the object attributes and the semantic features, for the dynamic object and any number of potential destination(s), the prediction component may predict a likely potential destination and determine a predicted trajectory for the dynamic object. Based on predicted trajectory of the dynamic object, the autonomous vehicle may select and execute driving maneuvers to control the autonomous vehicle safely and efficiently within the environment.
