Techniques are discussed for generating and optimizing trajectories for controlling autonomous vehicles in performing on-route and off-route actions within a driving environment. A planning component of an autonomous vehicle can receive or generate time-discretized (or temporal) trajectories for the autonomous vehicle to traverse an environment. Trajectories can be optimized, for example, based on the lateral and longitudinal dynamics of the vehicle, using loss functions and/or costs. In some examples, the temporal optimization of a trajectory may include resampling a previous trajectory based on the differences in the time sequences of the temporal trajectories, to ensure temporal consistency of trajectories across planning cycles. Constraints also may be applied during temporal optimization in some examples, to control or restrict driving maneuvers that are not supported by the autonomous vehicle.
