We explore the impact of environmental conditions on the competency of machine learning agents and how real-time competency assessments improve the reliability of ML agents. We learn a representation of conditions which impact the strategies and performance of the ML agent enabling determination of actions the agent can make to maintain operator expectations in the case of a convolutional neural network that leverages visual imagery to aid in the obstacle avoidance task of a simulated self-driving vehicle.
