US Patent 11513523 Automated vehicle artificial intelligence training based on simulations

Examples described herein relate to apparatuses and methods for or simulating and improving performance of an artificial intelligence (AI) driver, including but not limited to generating sensor data corresponding to a virtual environment, generating a pixelated image corresponding to the virtual environment based on the sensor data, determining actuator commands responsive to pixels in the pixelated image, wherein the decision module determines the actuator commands based on the AI driver, and simulating behaviors of the ego vehicle object using the actuator commands.
