Abstract
Techniques for generating a database containing predicted driving scenarios are discussed herein. A database management component may receive sensor data captured by sensors of vehicle(s) (e.g., driving log data) based on previous driving trips within various physical driving environments. The database management component may cluster driving scenarios observed from the sensor data based on the driving scenario's feature similarity. In some examples, the database management component may determine prediction information (e.g., actual trajectory from log data or trajectory generated by machine-learning model) to associate with each cluster. Accordingly, each cluster may include an encoded representation (e.g., key) as well as corresponding prediction information (e.g., value). In some examples, the database management component may store some or all key-value pairs in a database accessible by one or more vehicles while such vehicles navigate an environment.
