  "textContent": "A trajectory for an autonomous vehicle (AV) can be generated using curvature segments. A decision planner component can receive a reference trajectory for the AV to follow in an environment. A number of subdivisions (frames) of the reference trajectory may be associated with a curvature value and a tangent vector. Starting with an initial position of the AV, a candidate trajectory can be determined by continuously intersecting a segment with an origin at the initial position of the AV and a reference line associated with a particular frame. The reference line can be substantially perpendicular to the tangent vector of the particular frame. A location of the intersection between the segment and the reference line can be based on a curvature value of the segment. Optimizing a candidate trajectory can include varying curvature values associated with various segments and determining costs of the various candidate trajectories.",
