    Speaker: Benjamin Sapp, Waymo, LLC

    Talk Title: Behavioral Models for Interactive Motion Forecasting and Planning for Real-Word Autonomous Vehicles

    Series: Center for Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things

    Abstract: Understanding the complex behavior of other cars, pedestrians and cyclists is essential for autonomous vehicle planning in the real world. In this talk, we'll first go over some of our recent advancements in scalable transformer architectures for behavior modeling. Next, we'll discuss joint behavior prediction and planning architectures, as well as how to factorize the joint output space of all possible futures in effective ways. Lastly, we discuss the interplay of our models deployed in the real-world with simulated agents and simulators and describe systems for closed loop simulation of agents and AVs.
