Abstract

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to modeling dynamic agents in a surrounding environment of an ego vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes, in response to receiving sensor data including present observations of a road agent of the dynamic agents in the surrounding environment, identifying previous observations of the road agent from an electronic data store. The method includes estimating a future state of the road agent using at least the present observations and the previous observations of the road agent to compute the future state according to a probabilistic model comprised of a transition model that accounts for dynamic behaviors of the road agent to characterize transitions between states, and an agent model that accounts for actions of the road agent. The method includes controlling one or more vehicle systems of the ego vehicle according to the future state of the road agent.
