Abstract

A vehicle computing system may implement techniques to predict behavior of objects detected by a vehicle operating in the environment. The techniques may include determining a feature with respect to a detected objects (e.g., likelihood that the detected object will impact operation of the vehicle) and/or a location of the vehicle and determining based on the feature a model to use to predict behavior (e.g., estimated states) of proximate objects (e.g., the detected object). The model may be configured to use one or more algorithms, classifiers, and/or computational resources to predict the behavior. Different models may be used to predict behavior of different objects and/or regions in the environment. Each model may receive sensor data as an input, and output predicted behavior for the detected object. Based on the predicted behavior of the object, a vehicle computing system may control operation of the vehicle.
