Claim 6:
7. A method for path planning with latent state inference and graphical relationships, the method comprising:
receiving sensor data associated with a plurality of agents, wherein the plurality of agents includes an ego agent;
mapping 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;
predicting future trajectories of the plurality of agents at a given time based on sensor data and the latent states of the plurality of agents;
generating 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;
generating a motion plan for the ego agent based on the predicted future trajectories and the graphical representation; and
causing the ego agent to execute the motion plan.
