• Abstract: Predicting multiple trajectories for road users is important for automated driving systems: ego-vehicle motion planning indeed requires a clear view of the possible motions of the surrounding agents. However, the generative models used for multiple-trajectory forecasting suffer from a lack of diversity in their proposals. To avoid this form of collapse, we propose a novel method for structured prediction of diverse trajectories. To this end, we complement an underlying pretrained generative model with a diversity component, based on a determinantal point process (DPP). We balance and structure this diversity with the inclusion of knowledge-based quality constraints, independent from the underlying generative model. We combine these two novel components with a gating operation, ensuring that the predictions are both diverse and within the drivable area. We demonstrate on the nuScenes driving dataset the relevance of our compound approach, which yields significant improvements in the diversity and the quality of the generated trajectories.

  The ability to predict the future trajectories of traffic participants is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of autonomous vehicles. In this paper, a diffusion-based generative model for multi-agent trajectory prediction is proposed. The model is capable of capturing the complex interactions between traffic participants and the environment, accurately learning the multimodal nature of the data.

Our work addresses two key challenges in trajectory prediction, learning outputs, and better predictions by imposing constraints using driving knowledge.

  We propose to learn congestion patterns explicitly and devise a novel "Sense--Learn--Reason--Predict" framework. By decomposing the learning phases into two stages, a "student" can learn contextual cues from a "teacher" while generating collision-free trajectories. In experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed model is able to generate collision-free trajectory predictions in a synthetic dataset.

  Short-term motion of nearby vehicles is not strictly limited to a set of single trajectories. We propose to account for the multi-modality of the problem with use of Conditional Conditional Autoencoder (C-VAE) conditioned on an agent's past motion as well as a scene encoded with Capsule Network (CapsNet) In addition, we demonstrate advantages of employing the Minimum over N generated samples and tries to minimise the loss with respect to the closest sample, effectively leading to more diverse predictions.
