CARPe Posterum: A Convolutional Approach for Real-time Pedestrian Path Prediction
Pedestrian path prediction is an essential topic in computer vision and video
understanding. Having insight into the movement of pedestrians is crucial for
ensuring safe operation in a variety of applications including autonomous
vehicles, social robots, and environmental monitoring. Current works in this
area utilize complex generative or recurrent methods to capture many possible
futures. However, despite the inherent real-time nature of predicting future
paths, little work has been done to explore accurate and computationally
efficient approaches for this task. To this end, we propose a convolutional
approach for real-time pedestrian path prediction, CARPe. It utilizes a
variation of Graph Isomorphism Networks in combination with an agile
convolutional neural network design to form a fast and accurate path prediction
approach. Notable results in both inference speed and prediction accuracy are
achieved, improving FPS considerably in comparison to current state-of-the-art
methods while delivering competitive accuracy on well-known path prediction
datasets.Comment: AAAI-21 Camera Read
