Case Study: Diagnosing an Autonomous Vehicle Pipeline

Case context: You are building a pipeline for an autonomous vehicle. The pipeline contains a vehicle detection component and a path planning component that uses a non-learned algorithm. Individual testing shows that both components perform at human-level given their inputs. However, when integrated, the overall self-driving system falls far short of human-level driving performance.

Question: Based on the performance of the components and the overall system, diagnose the problem with the pipeline and decide what action to take.

Sample answer: The diagnosis is that the pipeline is flawed and missing information. Even though each component performs at human-level given its inputs, the overall system's poor performance reveals a lack of necessary information flow between components. The decided next step is to redesign the pipeline.

Key points:

  • Diagnose that the pipeline is flawed.
  • Identify that the pipeline is missing information.
  • Propose to redesign the pipeline.

Rubric: The response must diagnose the pipeline as flawed and missing information, and decide that the pipeline should be redesigned.
