Motional’s ML team is specialized in research as well as deployment of Machine Learning and Classical Methods. We implement, test and deploy deep neural networks, algorithms, and software to impact different parts of an autonomous vehicle (AV) software stack. In order to continuously improve the performance of all our models, we constructed an automated loop to monitor and mine for model’s failure cases, extend training datasets, adapt the models,  and automatically improve the models’ performance. And all of this is happening at log ingest! 

Read more about how our continuous learning framework works:

• Continuous Learning Framework 
• Scenario Mining 
• Motional's Machine Learning team has produced ground breaking advancements in the autonomous vehicle industry including nuPlan (https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.11810), nuScenes (https://www.nuscenes.org), PointPillars (https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.05784), and PointPainting (http://arxiv.org/abs/1911.10150) 

What You'll Do:

• Analyze data distributions to encountered problematic scenes for models focused on prediction, perception and planning
