Multi-perspective system and method for behavioral policy selection by an autonomous agent

摘要

A system and a method for autonomous decisioning and operation by an autonomous agent includes: collecting decisioning data including: collecting a first stream of data includes observation data obtained by onboard sensors of the autonomous agent, wherein each of the onboard sensors is physically arranged on the autonomous agent; collecting a second stream of data includes observation data obtained by offboard infrastructure devices, the offboard infrastructure devices being arranged geographically remote from and in an operating environment of the autonomous agent; implementing a decisioning data buffer that includes the first stream of data from the onboard sensors and the second stream of data from the offboard sensors; generating current state data; generating/estimating intent data for each of one or more agents within the operating environment of the autonomous agent; identifying a plurality of candidate behavioral policies; and selecting and executing at least one of the plurality of candidate behavioral policies.
