Classification: CPC G  B | IPC B  G

Claim 0:
1. A system for path planning with latent state inference and graphical relationships, the system comprising:
an inference module configured to:
receive sensor data associated with a plurality of agents, wherein the plurality of agents includes an ego agent; and
map the sensor data to a latent state distribution to identify latent states of the plurality of agents, wherein the latent states identify agents of the plurality of agents as cooperative or aggressive;

a policy module configured to predict future trajectories of the plurality of agents at a given time based on the sensor data and the latent states of the plurality of agents;
a graphical representation module configured generate a graphical representation based on the sensor data and a graphical representation neural network, wherein temporal information is applied to the sensor data so the graphical representation includes spatial-temporal relationships between the ego agent and the agents of the plurality of agents;
a planning module configured to generate a motion plan for the ego agent based on the predicted future trajectories and the graphical representation; and
an execution module configured to cause the ego agent to execute the motion plan.
