Restarting Operations for Recovery Processes in Autonomous Systems

Disclosed are embodiments for facilitating restarting operations for recovery processes in autonomous systems. In some aspects, an embodiment includes determining that an autonomous vehicle (AV) is experiencing a failure condition; identifying a plurality of restart operations to apply to one or more components of the AV contributing to the failure condition; prior to applying a restart operation of the plurality of restart operations, determining that safety conditions corresponding to the restart operation are satisfied; and applying the plurality of restart operations to the AV in accordance with an increasing order of disruptiveness of each of the restart operations to operations of the AV.
