Abstract

Techniques are disclosed for training one or more cost functions of an autonomous vehicle ('AV') control system based on difference between data generated using the AV control system and manual driving data. In many implementations, manual driving data captures action(s) of a vehicle controlled by a manual driver. Additionally or alternatively, multiple AV control systems can be evaluated by comparing deviations for each AV control system, where the deviations are determined using the same set of manual driving data.
