• Abstract summary: We propose a novel framework, RealTraj, that enhances the real-world applicability of trajectory forecasting. We present Det2TrajFormer, a trajectory forecasting model that remains invariant in tracking noise by using past detections as inputs. Unlike previous trajectory forecasting methods, our approach fine-tunes the model using only ground-truth detections, significantly reducing the need for costly person ID annotations.

• Abstract: This paper jointly addresses three key limitations in conventional pedestrian trajectory forecasting: pedestrian perception errors, real-world data collection costs, and person ID annotation costs. We propose a novel framework, RealTraj, that enhances the real-world applicability of trajectory forecasting. Our approach includes two training phases--self-supervised pretraining on synthetic data and weakly-supervised fine-tuning with limited real-world data--to minimize data collection efforts. To improve robustness to real-world errors, we focus on both model design and training objectives. Specifically, we present Det2TrajFormer, a trajectory forecasting model that remains invariant in tracking noise by using past detections as inputs. Additionally, we pretrain the model using multiple pretext tasks, which enhance robustness and improve forecasting performance based solely on detection data. Unlike previous trajectory forecasting methods, our approach fine-tunes the model using only ground-truth detections, significantly reducing the need for costly person ID annotations. In the experiments, we comprehensively verify the effectiveness of the proposed method against the limitations, and the method outperforms state-of-the-art trajectory forecasting methods on multiple datasets. The code will be released at https://fujiry0.github.io/RealTraj-project-page.

  We present the results of training a large trajectory model using real-world user check-in data. Our approach follows a pre-train and fine-tune paradigm, where a base model is pre-trained via masked trajectory modeling. Our empirical analysis utilizes a comprehensive dataset of over 2 billion check-ins generated by more than 6 million users.

• PreTraM: Self-Supervised Pre-training via Connecting Trajectory and Map [58.53373202647576]
  We propose PreTraM, a self-supervised pre-training scheme for trajectory forecasting. It consists of two parts: 1) Trajectory-Map Contrastive Learning, where we project trajectories and maps to a shared embedding space with cross-modal contrastive learning, and 2) Map Contrastive Learning, where we enhance map representation with contrastive learning on large quantities of HD-maps. On top of popular baselines such as AgentFormer and Trajectron++, PreTraM boosts their performance by 5.5% and 6.9% relatively in FDE-10 on the challenging nuScenes dataset.

  Real-world machine learning deployments are characterized by mismatches between the source (training) and target (test) distributions.

We propose Average Thresholded Confidence (ATC), a practical method that learns a threshold on the model's confidence, predicting accuracy as the fraction of unlabeled examples.

  Vehicle trajectory prediction tasks have been commonly tackled from two perspectives: knowledge-driven or data-driven. In this paper, we propose to learn a "Realistic Residual Block" (RRB) which effectively connects these two perspectives. Our proposed method outputs realistic predictions by confining the residual range and taking into account its uncertainty.
