• Abstract summary: Occupancy Grid Maps (OGMs) are commonly employed for scene prediction. Recent studies have successfully combined OGMs with deep learning methods to predict the evolution of scene. We propose a novel multi-task framework that leverages dynamic OGMs and semantic information to predict both future vehicle semantic grids and the future flow of the scene.

• Abstract: Accurate prediction of driving scenes is essential for road safety and autonomous driving. Occupancy Grid Maps (OGMs) are commonly employed for scene prediction due to their structured spatial representation, flexibility across sensor modalities and integration of uncertainty. Recent studies have successfully combined OGMs with deep learning methods to predict the evolution of scene and learn complex behaviours. These methods, however, do not consider prediction of flow or velocity vectors in the scene. In this work, we propose a novel multi-task framework that leverages dynamic OGMs and semantic information to predict both future vehicle semantic grids and the future flow of the scene. This incorporation of semantic flow not only offers intermediate scene features but also enables the generation of warped semantic grids. Evaluation on the real-world NuScenes dataset demonstrates improved prediction capabilities and enhanced ability of the model to retain dynamic vehicles within the scene.

  We introduce the GPT style next token motion prediction into motion prediction. Different from language data which is composed of homogeneous units -words, the elements in the driving scene could have complex spatial-temporal and semantic relations. We propose to adopt three factorized attention modules with different neighbors for information aggregation and different position encoding styles to capture their relations.

  This study presents the Graph-based Interaction-aware Multi-modal Trajectory Prediction framework. Within this framework, vehicles' motions are conceptualized as nodes in a time-varying graph, and the traffic interactions are represented by a dynamic adjacency matrix. We employ a driving intention-specific feature fusion, enabling the adaptive integration of historical and future embeddings.

  Motion is a challenging task for autonomous vehicles due to uncertainty in the sensor data, the non-deterministic nature of future, and complex behavior. In this paper, we tackle this problem by representing the scene as dynamic occupancy grid maps (DOGMs) We propose a novel framework that combines deep-temporal and probabilistic approaches to predict vehicle behaviors.

  A self-driving vehicle (SDV) must be able to perceive its surroundings and predict the future behavior of other traffic participants. Existing works either perform object detection followed by trajectory of the detected objects, or predict dense occupancy and flow grids for the whole scene. This motivates our unified approach to perception and future prediction that implicitly represents occupancy and flow over time with a single neural network.
