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.

MTF-Net: Multi-Modal Temporal Feature Fusion Network for Pedestrian Intention Prediction

MTF‑Net is a Multi‑Modal Temporal Feature Fusion Network that jointly models kinematic, appearance, and contextual cues for pedestrian intention prediction. It fuses four modalities—bounding‑box dynamics, human pose keypoints, local context, and scene‑level semantics—within a recurrent framework enhanced by gated linear units (GLUs) and an attention‑guided fusion head. Evaluations on the PIE and JAAD benchmarks show that MTF‑Net outperforms recent transformer‑ and graph‑based models, achieving up to 0.95 AUC on PIE and 0.94 AUC on JAAD while maintaining real‑time performance.

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.

RAFM-SER++: A Lightweight Multimodal Emotion Recognition Framework for Real-Time Behavioral Monitoring in Surveillance Systems

The paper introduces RAFM-SER++, a lightweight multimodal speech emotion recognition framework designed for real‑time surveillance systems. It replaces heavy bidirectional cross‑modal transformers with an asymmetric Residual Attention Fusion Mechanism that injects affective speech cues into text representations via a one‑directional residual attention pathway. Experiments on IEMOCAP and ESD show RAFM‑SER++ outperforms the HuBERT‑Base baseline and MemoCMT, reducing trainable parameters by over 60%, achieving 79.60 it/s inference speed, and reaching BACC scores of 81.10% on IEMOCAP and 95.39% on ESD.
