Scene embedding for visual navigation

Navigation instructions are determined using visual data or other sensory information. Individual frames can be extracted from video data, captured from passes through an environment, to generate a sequence of image frames. The frames are processed using a feature extractor to generate frame-specific feature vectors. Image triplets are generated, including a representative image frame (or corresponding feature vector), a similar image frame adjacent in the sequence, and a disparate image frame that is separated by a number of frames in the sequence. The embedding network is trained using the triplets. Image data for a current position and a target destination can then be provided as input to the trained embedding model, which outputs a navigation vector indicating a direction and distance over which the vehicle is to be navigated in the physical environment.
