Trajectory prediction by deep-learning
Classical operational pedestrian models rely on physical and social factors. They are defined by rules or generic mechanisms that depend on the local environment. Nowadays, there is an important trend in pedestrian trajectory prediction using deep learning approaches, based, among others, on the seminal studies by Alahi et al. with a Social Long Short-Term Memory recurrent neural network and Gupta et al. with a Social Generative Adversarial Networks. Applications include pedestrian movement in complex situations, pedestrian evacuation, autonomous vehicles, or robot motion planning in crowded environments.
On the one hand, knowledge-based models rely on a different equation with few physical parameters that can be physically interpreted. On the other hand, deep learning approaches are sophisticated algorithms with several hundred coefficients that have no known meaning. The approaches differ in terms of semantics, methodology, inputs/outputs, evaluation metrics, and also applications. Our research focuses on the development of new evaluation metrics that take into account pedestrian interactions, and the development of hybrid prediction algorithms that combine both approaches e.g. through residual modelling, knowledge-guided architecture and loss function, or synthetic data training.
