Claim 16:
17. A system comprising:
one or more processing units to perform operations comprising:
identifying, based at least on a representation of an environment, candidate lane change gaps within a target lane for an ego-vehicle to maneuver into;
determining one or more first scores for a first speed profile candidate of a plurality of longitudinal speed profile candidates for a lane change gap of the candidate lane change gaps;
determining one or more second scores for a second speed profile candidate of the plurality of longitudinal speed profile candidates for the lane change gap;
computing an aggregate score for the lane change gap based at least on an aggregation of the one or more first scores and the one or more second scores;
selecting, the lane change gap from the candidate lane change gaps based at least on the aggregate score; and
executing a lane change according to a longitudinal speed profile from the plurality of longitudinal speed profile candidates and the lane change gap based at least on the selecting of the lane change gap.
