TrajFusionNet+: Transformer-Based Prediction of Pedestrian Crossing Intention via Fusion of Trajectory Representations and Scene Graphs

TrajFusionNet+ is a transformer-based model that predicts pedestrian crossing intention by fusing sequential trajectory data, visual trajectory overlays, and graph-based scene context. It extends the earlier TrajFusionNet with three attention modules—Sequence, Visual, and Graph—to capture temporal, visual, and relational cues. The model outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods on the PIE and JAAD datasets and shows better generalization under a joint‑training, separate‑evaluation protocol.

Multi-Context Fusion Transformer for Pedestrian Crossing Intention Prediction in Urban Environments

The paper introduces the Multi-Context Fusion Transformer (MFT), a model that predicts pedestrian crossing intentions in urban settings by integrating four types of contextual information—pedestrian behavior, environment, localization, and vehicle motion—through a progressive fusion strategy. MFT uses intra-context attention for reciprocal interactions within each context, cross-context attention to combine these contexts into a global representation, and guided attention mechanisms to refine both context tokens and the global token. Experiments on JAADbeh, JAADall, and PIE datasets show MFT outperforms existing methods with accuracies of 73%, 93%, and 90% respectively, and ablation studies confirm the importance of each network component and input context.

Pedestrian Crossing Intent Classification From Event-Based Vision Using Convolutional Spiking Neural Networks With Temporal Augmentation

The paper presents an end‑to‑end system that converts driving footage into dynamic vision sensor (DVS) event streams, augments training with simulated DVS data, and trains a convolutional spiking neural network (Conv‑SNN) to classify pedestrian crossing intent as crossing or non‑crossing. The Conv‑SNN, trained with a class‑balanced loss and surrogate‑gradient learning, achieves high accuracy and F1 scores on JAAD and CARLA DVS datasets, outperforming or matching prior frame‑based methods while operating on sparse temporal representations. The study details architectural choices, neuron dynamics, and training protocols, and provides a convergence analysis and domain‑transfer evaluation.

HERMES: Heterogeneous Edge-Relational Multi-Head Embedded SSM Attention for Traffic Conflict Prediction at Signalized Intersections

arXiv:2607. 20505v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Surrogate safety measures (SSMs) enable proactive traffic safety assessment, but many existing methods evaluate pairwise interactions independently or flatten multi-agent scenes into fixed feature vectors, limiting their ability to represent heterogeneous interaction structure and evolving scene-level risk.

TGRIP: A Text-Guided Approach to Vehicle Instance Prediction in Autonomous Driving

Bird's-Eye View (BEV) end-to-end instance prediction has emerged as a robust paradigm for autonomous driving perception, effectively mitigating the error propagation inherent in traditional modular pipelines. However, current state-of-the-art approaches rely predominantly on geometric supervision, such as occupancy regression and optical flow, effectively treating scene agents as generic moving obstacles.
