LCrowdV: Generating Labeled Videos for Simulation-based Crowd Behavior Learning
We present a novel procedural framework to generate an arbitrary number of
labeled crowd videos (LCrowdV). The resulting crowd video datasets are used to
design accurate algorithms or training models for crowded scene understanding.
Our overall approach is composed of two components: a procedural simulation
framework for generating crowd movements and behaviors, and a procedural
rendering framework to generate different videos or images. Each video or image
is automatically labeled based on the environment, number of pedestrians,
density, behavior, flow, lighting conditions, viewpoint, noise, etc.
Furthermore, we can increase the realism by combining synthetically-generated
behaviors with real-world background videos. We demonstrate the benefits of
LCrowdV over prior lableled crowd datasets by improving the accuracy of
pedestrian detection and crowd behavior classification algorithms. LCrowdV

CAR-Net: Clairvoyant Attentive Recurrent Network
We present an interpretable framework for path prediction that leverages
dependencies between agents' behaviors and their spatial navigation
environment. We exploit two sources of information: the past motion trajectory
of the agent of interest and a wide top-view image of the navigation scene. We
propose a Clairvoyant Attentive Recurrent Network (CAR-Net) that learns where
to look in a large image of the scene when solving the path prediction task.
Our method can attend to any area, or combination of areas, within the raw
image (e.g., road intersections) when predicting the trajectory of the agent.
This allows us to visualize fine-grained semantic elements of navigation scenes
that influence the prediction of trajectories. To study the impact of space on
agents' trajectories, we build a new dataset made of top-view images of
hundreds of scenes (Formula One racing tracks) where agents' behaviors are
heavily influenced by known areas in the images (e.g., upcoming turns). CAR-Net
successfully attends to these salient regions. Additionally, CAR-Net reaches
state-of-the-art accuracy on the standard trajectory forecasting benchmark,
Stanford Drone Dataset (SDD). Finally, we show CAR-Net's ability to generalize
to unseen scenes.Comment: The 2nd and 3rd authors contributed equall
