Abstract

A method for training a model for generating simulation data for training an autonomous driving agent, comprising: analyzing real data, collected from a driving environment, to identify a plurality of environment classes, a plurality of moving agent classes, and a plurality of movement pattern classes; generating a training environment, according to one environment class; and in at least one training iteration: generating, by a simulation generation model, a simulated driving environment according to the training environment and according to a plurality of generated training agents, each associated with one of the plurality of agent classes and one of the plurality of movement pattern classes; collecting simulated driving data from the simulated environment; and modifying at least one model parameter of the simulation generation model to minimize a difference between a simulation statistical fingerprint, computed using the simulated driving data, and a real statistical fingerprint, computed using the real data.
