- Junwei Liang, Lu Jiang, Alexander Hauptmann. 2020. SimAug: Learning Robust Representations from 3D Simulation for Pedestrian Trajectory Prediction in Unseen Cameras. Abstract: This paper focuses on the problem of predicting future trajectories of people in unseen scenarios and camera views. We propose a method to efficiently utilize multi-view 3D simulation data for training. Our approach finds the hardest camera view to mix up with adversarial data from the original camera view in training, thus enabling the model to learn robust representations that can generalize to unseen camera views. We refer to our method as SimAug. We show that SimAug achieves best results on three out-of-domain real-world benchmarks, as well as getting state-of-the-art in the Stanford Drone and the VIRAT/ActEV dataset with in-domain training data. We will release our models and code.
