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),

Tracking by Prediction: A Deep Generative Model for Mutli-Person localisation and Tracking
Current multi-person localisation and tracking systems have an over reliance
on the use of appearance models for target re-identification and almost no
approaches employ a complete deep learning solution for both objectives. We
present a novel, complete deep learning framework for multi-person localisation
and tracking. In this context we first introduce a light weight sequential
Generative Adversarial Network architecture for person localisation, which
overcomes issues related to occlusions and noisy detections, typically found in
a multi person environment. In the proposed tracking framework we build upon
recent advances in pedestrian trajectory prediction approaches and propose a
novel data association scheme based on predicted trajectories. This removes the
need for computationally expensive person re-identification systems based on
appearance features and generates human like trajectories with minimal
fragmentation. The proposed method is evaluated on multiple public benchmarks
including both static and dynamic cameras and is capable of generating
outstanding performance, especially among other recently proposed deep neural
network based approaches.Comment: To appear in IEEE Winter Conference on Applications of Computer

Dynamic Occupancy Grid Prediction for Urban Autonomous Driving: A Deep Learning Approach with Fully Automatic Labeling
Long-term situation prediction plays a crucial role in the development of
intelligent vehicles. A major challenge still to overcome is the prediction of
complex downtown scenarios with multiple road users, e.g., pedestrians, bikes,
and motor vehicles, interacting with each other. This contribution tackles this
challenge by combining a Bayesian filtering technique for environment
representation, and machine learning as long-term predictor. More specifically,
a dynamic occupancy grid map is utilized as input to a deep convolutional
neural network. This yields the advantage of using spatially distributed
velocity estimates from a single time step for prediction, rather than a raw
data sequence, alleviating common problems dealing with input time series of
multiple sensors. Furthermore, convolutional neural networks have the inherent
characteristic of using context information, enabling the implicit modeling of
road user interaction. Pixel-wise balancing is applied in the loss function
counteracting the extreme imbalance between static and dynamic cells. One of
the major advantages is the unsupervised learning character due to fully
automatic label generation. The presented algorithm is trained and evaluated on
multiple hours of recorded sensor data and compared to Monte-Carlo simulation
