Abstract
A cost associated with a candidate trajectory can be determined based on whether a vehicle has received a teleoperation command at a time associated with the cost evaluation. In some cases, an example system is configured to determine the cost for a candidate trajectory based on at least one of: (i) context data representing a current state of an environment of a vehicle at a current time, (ii) object historical data representing a behavior of an object in the environment during a period before the current time, (iii) vehicle historical data representing a behavior of the vehicle in the environment during the period before the current time, (iv) prediction data comprising one or more of a predicted vehicle state or a predicted object state at a future time associated with the candidate trajectory, or (v) teleoperation data representing a feature of a teleoperation command received by the vehicle.
