PROCESSING ENVIRONMENTAL DATA FOR VEHICLES

Examples described herein provide a computer-implemented method for processing environmental data for at least one other vehicle relative to a target vehicle. The method includes processing, by a processing device using a self-attention mechanism, first data associated the at least one other vehicle to generate a first output associated with the at least one other vehicle. The method further includes processing, by the processing device using stacked residual blocks, second data associated the target vehicle to generate a second output associated with the target vehicle. The method further includes concatenating, by the processing device, the first output and the second output to generate a concatenated vector. The method further includes making, by the processing device, a driving decision for the target vehicle based at least in part on the concatenated vector. The method further includes controlling the target vehicle based at least in part on the decision.
