Claim 4:
5. A method comprising:
receiving a request to evaluate a performance of a first controller;
causing the first controller to control a simulated vehicle in a simulation;
determining a first metric associated with controlling the simulated vehicle in accordance with the first controller;
controlling the simulated vehicle in the simulation based at least in part on data associated with an operation of a vehicle controlled by a second controller, wherein the second controller is different from the first controller;
determining a second metric associated with controlling the simulated vehicle in accordance with the second controller;
determining a difference between the first metric and the second metric;
determining a validity of the first controller based at least in part on the difference; and
transmitting, based at least in part on the validity, the first controller or the second controller to a vehicle computing device associated with the vehicle to control vehicle operations.
