• Abstract: Physical motion models offer interpretable predictions for the motion of vehicles. However, some model parameters, such as those related to aero- and hydrodynamics, are expensive to measure and are often only roughly approximated reducing prediction accuracy. Recurrent neural networks achieve high prediction accuracy at low cost, as they can use cheap measurements collected during routine operation of the vehicle, but their results are hard to interpret. To precisely predict vehicle states without expensive measurements of physical parameters, we propose a hybrid approach combining deep learning and physical motion models including a novel two-phase training procedure. We achieve interpretability by restricting the output range of the deep neural network as part of the hybrid model, which limits the uncertainty introduced by the neural network to a known quantity. We have evaluated our approach for the use case of ship and quadcopter motion. The results show that our hybrid model can improve model interpretability with no decrease in accuracy compared to existing deep learning approaches.

  This study investigates the generalization capabilities and robustness of purely deep learning (DL) models and hybrid models based on physical principles in fluid dynamics applications. Three autoregressive models were compared: a convolutional autoencoder combined with a convolutional LSTM, a variational autoencoder (VAE) combined with a ConvLSTM and a hybrid model that combines proper decomposition (POD) with a LSTM (POD-DL) While the VAE and ConvLSTM models accurately predicted laminar flow, the hybrid POD-DL model outperformed the others across both laminar and turbulent flow regimes.

  This paper proposes an interpretable generative model for motion prediction with robust generalizability to out-of-distribution cases.

  Human trajectory forecasting helps to understand and predict human behaviors, enabling applications from social robots to self-driving cars. Model-free methods offer superior prediction accuracy but lack explainability, while model-based methods provide explainability but cannot predict well. We show that BNSP-SFM achieves up to a 50% improvement in prediction accuracy, compared with 11 state-of-the-art methods.

  Recent has shown that machine learning (ML) models can be trained to accurately forecast the dynamics of chaotic dynamical systems. In the absence of mitigating techniques, this technique can result in artificially rapid error growth, leading to inaccurate predictions and/or climate instability. We introduce Linearized Multi-Noise Training (LMNT), a regularization technique that deterministically approximates the effect of many small, independent noise realizations added to the model input during training.
