Abstract

The present disclosure relates generally to techniques for the kinematic estimation and dynamic behavior estimation of autonomous heavy equipment or vehicles to improve navigation, digging and material carrying tasks at various industrial work sites. Particularly, aspects of the present disclosure are directed to obtaining a set of sensor data providing a representation of operation of an autonomous vehicle in a worksite environment, estimating, by a trained model comprising a Gaussian process, a set of output data based on the set of sensor data, controlling an operation of the autonomous vehicle in the worksite environment using input data derived from the set of sensor data and the set of output data, obtaining actual output data from the operation of the autonomous vehicle in the worksite environment, and updating the trained model with the input data and the actual output data.
