Abstract

Techniques for adjusting vehicle models based on environmental conditions are discussed herein. The techniques may include receiving image data representing a portion of an environment in which a vehicle is operating and inputting the image data into a machine learned model. Additionally, data representing an environmental condition associated with the environment may be received from a sensor of the vehicle to detect changes in the environmental conditions such that one or more actions associated with the machine learned model or an output of the machine learned model may be performed. Some of the techniques may also include running multiple machine learned models or multiple configurations of a machine learned model in parallel and selecting different outputs of the machine learned model(s) to adjust for changes in the environmental conditions. For instance, individual outputs may be selected based on environmental conditions, confidence scores, thresholds, etc.
