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.

SimWAM: A Simple World Action Model for End-to-End Autonomous Driving

SimWAM is a lightweight World-Action Model that uses future‑video prediction only during training to supervise an action expert, enabling end‑to‑end autonomous driving without costly test‑time future imagination. The architecture co‑trains a pretrained video expert and a lightweight action expert via joint flow matching, while an isolated attention mask keeps action prediction independent of future frames. This design allows the video backbone to be swapped and the action expert scaled independently, achieving 91.5 PDMS on NAVSIM, outperforming state‑of‑the‑art WAM planners with lower latency and zero‑shot transfer to nuScenes.
