Abstract
A method for vehicle prediction, planning, and control is described. The method includes separately encoding traffic state information at an intersection into corresponding traffic state latent spaces. The method also includes aggregating the corresponding traffic state latent spaces to form a generalized traffic geometry latent space. The method further includes interpreting the generalized traffic geometry latent space to form a traffic flow map including current and future vehicle trajectories. The method also includes decoding the generalized traffic geometry latent space to predict a vehicle behavior according to the traffic flow map based on the current and future vehicle trajectories.
