Human behavior has the nature of indeterminacy, which requires the pedestrian trajectory prediction system to model the multi-modality of future motion states. Unlike existing stochastic trajectory prediction methods which usually use a latent variable to represent multi-modality, we explicitly simulate the process of human motion variation from indeterminate to determinate. In this paper, we present a new framework to formulate the trajectory prediction task as a reverse process of motion indeterminacy diffusion (MID), in which we progressively discard indeterminacy from all the walkable areas until reaching the desired trajectory. This process is learned with a parameterized Markov chain conditioned by the observed trajectories. We can adjust the length of the chain to control the degree of indeterminacy and balance the diversity and determinacy of the predictions. Specifically, we encode the history behavior information and the social interactions as a state embedding and devise a Transformer-based diffusion model to capture the temporal dependencies of trajectories.

Code

Environment

PyTorch == 1.7.1
CUDA > 10.1

Prepare Data

The preprocessed data splits for the ETH/UCY and Stanford Dronw datasets are in raw_data. We preprocess the data and generate .pkl files for training.

To do so run

python process_data.py

The train/validation/test/ splits are the same as those found in Social GAN. Please see process_data.py for detail.

Training

Step 1: Modify or create your own config file in /configs

You can adjust parameters in config file as you like and change the network architecture of the diffusion model in models/diffusion.py

Make sure the eval_mode is set to False

Step 2: Train MID

python main.py --config configs/YOUR_CONFIG.yaml --dataset DATASET

Note that $DATASET should from ["eth", "hotel", "univ", "zara1", "zara2", "sdd"]

Logs and checkpoints will be automatically saved.

Evaluation

To evaluate a trained-model, please set eval_mode in config file to True and set the epoch you'd like to evaluate at from eval_at and run

python main.py --config configs/YOUR_CONFIG.yaml --dataset DATASET

Since diffusion model is an iterative process, the evaluation process may take a long time. We are working on a faster version of MID or you can set a shorter diffusion steps (default 100 steps).
