Techniques are discussed herein for determining optimal driving trajectories for autonomous vehicles in complex multi-agent driving environments. A baseline trajectory may be perturbed and parameterized into a vector of vehicle states associated with different segments (or portions) of the trajectory. Such a vector may be modified to ensure the resultant perturbed trajectory is kino-dynamically feasible. The vectorized perturbed trajectory may be input, including a representation of the current driving environment and additional agents, into a prediction model trained to output a predicted future driving scene. The predicted future driving scene, including predicted future states for the vehicle and predicted trajectories for the additional agents in the environment, may be evaluated to determine costs associated with each perturbed trajectory. Based on the determined costs, the optimization algorithm may determine subsequent perturbations and/or the optimal trajectory for controlling the vehicle in the driving environment.
