Under shared autonomy, wheelchair users expect vehicles to provide safe and comfortable rides while following users' high-level navigation plans. To find such a path, vehicles negotiate with different terrains and assess their traversal difficulty. Most prior works model surroundings either through geometric representations or semantic classifications, which do not reflect perceived motion intensi...
