Human Motion Trajectory Prediction: A Survey
With growing numbers of intelligent autonomous systems in human environments,
the ability of such systems to perceive, understand and anticipate human
behavior becomes increasingly important. Specifically, predicting future
positions of dynamic agents and planning considering such predictions are key
tasks for self-driving vehicles, service robots and advanced surveillance
systems. This paper provides a survey of human motion trajectory prediction. We
review, analyze and structure a large selection of work from different
communities and propose a taxonomy that categorizes existing methods based on
the motion modeling approach and level of contextual information used. We
provide an overview of the existing datasets and performance metrics. We
discuss limitations of the state of the art and outline directions for further
research.Comment: Submitted to the International Journal of Robotics Research (IJRR),

AutonoVi: Autonomous Vehicle Planning with Dynamic Maneuvers and Traffic Constraints
We present AutonoVi:, a novel algorithm for autonomous vehicle navigation
that supports dynamic maneuvers and satisfies traffic constraints and norms.
Our approach is based on optimization-based maneuver planning that supports
dynamic lane-changes, swerving, and braking in all traffic scenarios and guides
the vehicle to its goal position. We take into account various traffic
constraints, including collision avoidance with other vehicles, pedestrians,
and cyclists using control velocity obstacles. We use a data-driven approach to
model the vehicle dynamics for control and collision avoidance. Furthermore,
our trajectory computation algorithm takes into account traffic rules and
behaviors, such as stopping at intersections and stoplights, based on an
arc-spline representation. We have evaluated our algorithm in a simulated
environment and tested its interactive performance in urban and highway driving
scenarios with tens of vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. These scenarios
include jaywalking pedestrians, sudden stops from high speeds, safely passing
cyclists, a vehicle suddenly swerving into the roadway, and high-density
traffic where the vehicle must change lanes to progress more effectively.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figure
