TLDR
A novel dataset is introduced which in addition to providing the bounding box information for pedestrian detection, also includes the behavioral and contextual annotations for the scenes, which allows combining visual and semantic information for better understanding of pedestrians' intentions in various traffic scenarios.
Abstract
Designing autonomous vehicles suitable for urban environments remains an unresolved problem. One of the major dilemmas faced by autonomous cars is how to understand the intention of other road users and communicate with them. The existing datasets do not provide the necessary means for such higher level analysis of traffic scenes. With this in mind, we introduce a novel dataset which in addition to providing the bounding box information for pedestrian detection, also includes the behavioral and contextual annotations for the scenes. This allows combining visual and semantic information for better understanding of pedestrians' intentions in various traffic scenarios. We establish baseline approaches for analyzing the data and show that combining visual and contextual information can improve prediction of pedestrian intention at the point of crossing by at least 20%.

Network Generalization Prediction for Safety Critical Tasks in Novel Operating Domains.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the context subspace for a pretrained Faster RCNN network performing pedestrian detection on the Berkeley Deep Drive (BDD) dataset and demonstrate that the Context Subspace from the BDD dataset is informative for completely unseen datasets, such as JAAD and Cityscapes.

Pedestrian Crossing Intention Forecasting at Unsignalized Intersections Using Naturalistic Trajectories

TL;DR: In this paper , a model that predicts pedestrian crossing behavior at different locations around an urban intersection is proposed, which not only provides a classification label (e.g., crossing, not-crossing), but also a quantitative confidence level (i.e., probability).

Road Scene Risk Perception for Intelligent Vehicles Using End-to-End Affordance Learning and Visual Reasoning

TL;DR: A new perspective on scene risk perception is proposed by modeling end-to-end road scene affordance using a weakly supervised classifier and results show that the proposed model is able to correctly classify three different levels of risk.

ImageNet Classification with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

TL;DR: The state-of-the-art performance of CNNs was achieved by Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) as discussed by the authors, which consists of five convolutional layers, some of which are followed by max-pooling layers, and three fully-connected layers with a final 1000-way softmax.

Spatial Pyramid Pooling in Deep Convolutional Networks for Visual Recognition

TL;DR: This work equips the networks with another pooling strategy, “spatial pyramid pooling”, to eliminate the above requirement, and develops a new network structure, called SPP-net, which can generate a fixed-length representation regardless of image size/scale.
