• Authors: Stefan Zernetsch and Oliver Trupp and Viktor Kress and Konrad Doll and Bernhard Sick
• Abstract summary: This article presents a novel approach to incorporate visual cues from video-data from a wide-angle stereo camera system mounted at an urban intersection into the forecast of cyclist trajectories. We extract features from image and optical flow sequences using 3D convolutional neural networks (3D-ConvNet) and combine them with features extracted from the cyclist's past trajectory to forecast future cyclist positions.

• Abstract: This article presents a novel approach to incorporate visual cues from video-data from a wide-angle stereo camera system mounted at an urban intersection into the forecast of cyclist trajectories. We extract features from image and optical flow (OF) sequences using 3D convolutional neural networks (3D-ConvNet) and combine them with features extracted from the cyclist's past trajectory to forecast future cyclist positions. By the use of additional information, we are able to improve positional accuracy by about 7.5 % for our test dataset and by up to 22 % for specific motion types compared to a method solely based on past trajectories. Furthermore, we compare the use of image sequences to the use of OF sequences as additional information, showing that OF alone leads to significant improvements in positional accuracy. By training and testing our methods using a real-world dataset recorded at a heavily frequented public intersection and evaluating the methods' runtimes, we demonstrate the applicability in real traffic scenarios. Our code and parts of our dataset are made publicly available.

  We introduce PointOdyssey, a large-scale synthetic dataset, and data generation framework. Our goal is to advance the state-of-the-art by placing emphasis on long videos with naturalistic motion. We animate deformable characters using real-world motion capture data, we build 3D scenes to match the motion capture environments, and we render camera viewpoints using trajectories mined via structure-from-motion on real videos.

  Existing methods often rely on purely visual matching or consider temporal constraints but ignore the spatial information of the camera network. We propose a pedestrian retrieval framework based on cross-camera generation, which integrates both temporal and spatial information. To verify the effectiveness of our method, we construct the first cross-camera pedestrian trajectory dataset.

  7DoF prediction of vehicles at an intersection is an important task for assessing potential conflicts between road users. We develop an approach using a weakly supervised method of fine tuning 3D object detectors for traffic observation cameras. Our method achieves vehicle 7DoF pose prediction accuracy on our dataset comparable to the top performing monocular 3D object detectors on autonomous vehicle datasets.
