BASELINING AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE SAFETY USING DRIVING DATA OF HUMAN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE OPERATORS

System, methods, and computer-readable media for configuring an autonomous vehicle based on safety scores determined by a safety score prediction algorithm, and an associated training technique, to output a safety score for a predicted and/or actual path. The safety score is a value indicating a likelihood of risky events per distance. The safety score prediction algorithm is trained with historical human driving datasets associated with paths (predicted or actual) taken by one or more AVs during human driving.
