Abstract
System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to a manner of generating and relating frames that improves the retrieval of sensor and agent data for processing by different vehicle tasks. In one embodiment, a method includes acquiring sensor data by a vehicle. The method also includes generating a frame including the sensor data and agent perceptions determined from the sensor data at a timestamp, the agent perceptions including multi-dimensional data that describes features for surrounding vehicles of the vehicle. The method also includes relating the frame to other frames of the vehicle by track, the other frames having processed data from various times and the track having a predetermined window of scene information associated with an agent. The method also includes training a learning model using the agent perceptions accessed from the track.
