Accurate prediction of probabilistic and interactive human behavior is a prerequisite to enable full autonomy of mobile robots (e.g., autonomous vehicles) in complex scenes. To enable accurate predictions, two fundamental problems should be addressed: 1) datasets of human behavior and motions in interactive tasks and scenarios, and 2) evaluation metrics and benchmarks for extensive prediction models/algorithms. As more and more datasets focusing on interactive driving scenarioshave been constructed (e.g., the INTERACTION dataset), the second problem remains open. Evaluation metrics are upon discussion and benchmarks are yet to be established to guide the design of prediction algorithms, from problem formulation, to input/output interface design, and to the quantification of performance, particularly when specific behavior generation strategies are involved.
This workshop aims to address the above fundamental challenges regarding the prediction problem in autonomous driving.
Researchers in related areas from both, academia or industry are invited to submit extended abstracts (at least 3-pages long) or full papers to be presented in spotlight presentations and a poster session. The topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Evaluation metrics for probabilistic prediction
Data-efficiency, interpretability and generalizability of prediction algorithms
Interpretable prediction models
Probabilistic prediction algorithms of behavior and motion
Social interaction models
Human behavior models for prediction and generation
Risk analysis of prediction
Datasets focusing on human behaviors in interactive scenarios
Manual annotation tools and automatic labeling algorithms for data processing
Survey focusing on datasets, prediction algorithms or evaluation metrics
