It has been sort of a \u201ctwo steps forward, one step back\u201d type of program, as some updates have seen regressions in terms of the driving capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Tesla has been frequently releasing new software updates to the FSD Beta program and adding more owners to it.<\/p>\n<p>The company now has <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2022\/04\/20\/tesla-number-people-full-self-driving-beta-program-an-accelerated-rate-improvement-coming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">around 100,000 owners in the program<\/a>, and with more people in it, it is expected to have more data to train its neural nets.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Tesla has started using a new FSD beta software update (2022.12.3.10), and according to the release notes, it is one of the most extensive updates to date. <\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Tesla notes for the first time the number of video clips pulled from the fleet and used to train certain new behaviors. The automaker has mentioned a total of over 250,000 new video clips used in the training set for this update.<\/p>\n<p>Tesla also said that it has removed three older neural nets from the system, which enabled 1.8 frames per second improvement in the system frame rate.<\/p>\n<p>The release notes also mentioned many more improvements \u2013 several of them related to the level of confidence in which the system takes action, which has been a source of frustration for using FSD Beta in the past.<\/p>\n<p>You can read more about all the improvements in the release notes below:<\/p>\n<p><strong>FSD BETA v10.12 Release Notes<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Upgraded decision making framework for unprotected left turns with better modeling of objects\u2019 response to ego\u2019s actions by adding more features that shape the go\/no-go decision. This increases robustness to noisy measurements while being more sticky to decisions within a safety margin. The framework also leverages median safe regions when necessary to maneuver across large turns and accelerating harder through maneuvers when required to safely exit the intersection.<\/li>\n<li>Improved creeping for visibility using more accurate lane geometry and higher resolution occlusion detection.<\/li>\n<li>Reduced instances of attempting uncomfortable turns through better integration with object future predictions during lane selection.<\/li>\n<li>Upgraded planner to rely less on lanes to enable maneuvering smoothly out of restricted space.<\/li>\n<li>Increased safety of turns crossing traffic by improving the architecture of the lanes neural network which greatly boosted recall and geometric accuracy of crossing lanes.<\/li>\n<li>Improved the recall and geometric accuracy of all lane productions by adding 180,000 video clips to the training set.<\/li>\n<li>Reduced traffic control related false slowdowns through better integration with lane structure and improved behavior with respect to yellow lights.<\/li>\n<li>Improved the geometric accuracy of road edge and line predictions by adding a mixing\/coupling layer with the generalized static obstacle network.<\/li>\n<li>Improved geometric accuracy and understanding of visibility by retraining the generalized static obstacle network with improved data from the auto labeler and by adding 30,000 more video clips.<\/li>\n<li>Improved recall of motorcycles, reduced velocity error of close-by pedestrian and bicyclists, and reduced heading error of pedestrians by adding new sim and auto-labeled data to the training set.<\/li>\n<li>Improved precision of the \u201cis parked\u201d attribute on vehicles by adding 41,000 clips to the training set. Solved 48% of failure cases captured by our telemetry of 10.11.<\/li>\n<li>Improved detection recall of faraway crossing objects by regenerating the dataset with improved versions of the neural networks used in the auto labeler, which increased data quality.<\/li>\n<li>Improved offsetting behavior when maneuvering around cars with open doors.<\/li>\n<li>Improved angular velocity and lane-centric velocity for non-VRU objects by upgrading it into network predicted tasks.<\/li>\n<li>Improved comfort when lane changing behind vehicles with harsh deceleration by tighter integration between lead vehicles future motion estimate and planned lane change profile.<\/li>\n<li>Increased reliance on network-predicted acceleration for all moving objects, previously only longitudinally relevant objects.<\/li>\n<li>Updated nearby vehicle assets with visualization indicating when a vehicle has a door open.<\/li>\n<li>Improved system frame rate +1.8 frames per second by removing three legacy neural networks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ad-disclaimer-container\" readability=\"6.3518518518519\">\n<p class=\"disclaimer-affiliate\"><em>FTC: We use income earning auto affiliate links.<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/about\/#affiliate\">More.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- post ad --><\/div>\n<hr\/>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCcOIZzJgLCyMPILY7-1Vsdg?sub_confirmation=1\">Subscribe to Electrek on YouTube for exclusive videos<\/a> and subscribe to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.electrek.co\/guides\/electrek-podcast\">podcast<\/a>.<!-- youtube embed --><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Recent Videos\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YvQO-v-IUjg?playlist=v14GjuL7Gms,FCzwgkGBzco,FRTm8SPoDO8,fcPzhLeN9K0,OCapyMtjTjk,w9vFmXo9464,Po1YREJP0iA,u33YyLPO_v0,wh5M-xjzus4\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"563\">[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tesla has started to push a new Full Self-Driving (FSD) Beta software update with improvements based on over 250,000 training video clips from its fleet.
