US Patent 11086319 Generating testing instances for autonomous vehicles

Sensor data collected from an autonomous vehicle can be labeled using sensor data collected from an additional vehicle. Labeled sensor data can generate targeted testing instances for a trained machine learning model, where the trained machine learning model is used in generating control signals for an autonomous vehicle. In many implementations, targeted training instances can generate an accuracy value for the trained neural network model. Additionally or alternatively, the sensor suite on the additional vehicle can include a removable hardware pod which can be mounted on a variety of vehicles.
