Assignee: WOVEN BY TOYOTA, U.S., INC.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 19:
20. A system comprising:
one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media including instructions; and
one or more processors coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable storage media and operable to execute the instructions to:
access sensor data associated with a surrounding environment of a vehicle;
generate, based on the sensor data and using a heuristic that is a rule-based algorithm that is not a machine-learning algorithm, a first trajectory having one or more first driving characteristics for navigating the vehicle in the surrounding environment;

generate, using a machine-learning generator and the first trajectory, a second trajectory having one or more second driving characteristics by modifying the one or more first driving characteristics of the first trajectory using adjustment parameters from the machine-learning generator based on one or more human-driving characteristics of observed human-driven trajectories such that the one or more second driving characteristics satisfy a similarity threshold relative to the one or more human-driving characteristics, wherein the first trajectory and the second trajectory define separate vehicle moving paths for the vehicle to move from a first point to a second point and include a series of spatial-temporal points; and
control the vehicle using vehicle operations based on the second trajectory to navigate the vehicle in the surrounding environment.
