Abstract
A method for generating a trajectory for a vehicle based on an abstract space of control parameters associated with the vehicle may include applying a machine learning model to determine an abstract space representation of the trajectory, which includes a sequence of control parameters associated with the vehicle. For instance, application of the machine learning model may include performing a search of the abstract space parameterized by control parameters that include derivatives of the position of the vehicle. Examples of control parameters include velocity, acceleration, jerk, and snap. A physical space representation of the trajectory may be determined by at least mapping the sequence of control parameters to a sequence of positions for the vehicle. A motion of the vehicle may be controlled based at least on the physical space representation of the trajectory. Related systems and computer program products are also provided.
