Abstract

Automating reinforcement learning for autonomous vehicles may include assigning a probability with a scenario and varying that probability based at least in part on changes in performance by the autonomous vehicle associated with that scenario. The amount of time and computational bandwidth required to train a machine-learned component of an autonomous vehicle and the accuracy of the machine-learned component may be improved by determining a reward for performance of the autonomous vehicle in a scenario based at least in part on an severity metric. The impact severity metric may be determined based at least in part on a velocity, angle, and/or interaction area associated with the impact.
