A system for navigating an autonomous vehicle using reinforcement learning techniques is provided. The system includes at least one processing device programmed to: receive, from a camera, a plurality of images representative of an environment of the host vehicle; analyze the plurality of images to identify a present navigational state associated with the host vehicle; select a second potential navigational action based on a determination that an expected reward associated with a fourth indicator is greater than an expected reward associated with a second indicator.
Suboptimal immediate navigational response based on long term planning
