In various examples, a machine learning model—such as a deep neural network (DNN)—may be trained to use image data and/or other sensor data as inputs to generate two-dimensional or three-dimensional trajectory points in world space, a vehicle orientation, and/or a vehicle state. For example, sensor data that represents orientation, steering information, and/or speed of a vehicle may be collected and used to automatically generate a trajectory for use as ground truth data for training the DNN. Once deployed, the trajectory points, the vehicle orientation, and/or the vehicle state may be used by a control component (e.g., a vehicle controller) for controlling the vehicle through a physical environment. For example, the control component may use these outputs of the DNN to determine a control profile (e.g., steering, decelerating, and/or accelerating) specific to the vehicle for controlling the vehicle through the physical environment.
