This paper proposes a paradigm for vehicle trajectory prediction that models future relationships between vehicles based on their anticipated future positions, moving beyond reliance on observed past behavior. The approach incorporates a Future Relationship Module and waypoint occupancy prediction, achieving state-of-the-art performance on the nuScenes and Argoverse benchmarks, particularly for long-horizon predictions.

Key insights

  • Human drivers naturally consider potential future conflicts and collaborations when making driving decisions, a capability that current prediction systems largely lack.
  • Modeling interactions based on anticipated future positions (future relationships) provides a more robust foundation for trajectory prediction than relying solely on past observed behavior.
  • Probabilistic waypoint occupancy, representing the probability of a vehicle passing through specific lane segments, offers a structured, scalable, and interpretable representation for reasoning about future vehicle motion and potential interactions.
