Anomaly Detection Systems and Methods for Autonomous Vehicles

A computing system for anomaly detection, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more tangible, non-transitory, computer readable media that collectively store instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the computing system to perform operations, the operations comprising:
• obtaining state data indicative of one or more states of one or more objects that are within a surrounding environment of an autonomous vehicle;
• determining an existence of an anomaly within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the state data indicative of the one or more states of the one or more objects within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle;
• determining a motion plan for the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the existence of the anomaly within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle;
• and
• causing the autonomous vehicle to initiate travel in accordance with the motion plan.

An autonomous vehicle comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more tangible, non-transitory, computer readable media that collectively store instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the autonomous vehicle to perform operations, the operations comprising:
• obtaining state data indicative of one or more states of one or more objects that are within a surrounding environment of an autonomous vehicle;
• determining an existence of an anomaly within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the state data indicative of the one or more states of the one or more objects within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle;
• generating data indicative of the existence of the anomaly;
• and
• determining a motion plan for the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the data indicative of the existence of the anomaly.
