TrajNet

The TrajNet Challenge represents a large multi-scenario forecasting benchmark. The challenge consists on predicting 3161 human trajectories, observing for each trajectory 8 consecutive ground-truth values (3.2 seconds) i.e., t−7,t−6,…,t, in world plane coordinates (the so-called world plane Human-Human protocol) and forecasting the following 12 (4.8 seconds), i.e., t+1,…,t+12. The 8-12-value protocol is consistent with the most trajectory forecasting approaches, usually focused on the 5-dataset ETH-univ + ETH-hotel + UCY-zara01 + UCY-zara02 + UCY-univ. Trajnet extends substantially the 5-dataset scenario by diversifying the training data, thus stressing the flexibility and generalization one approach has to exhibit when it comes to unseen scenery/situations. In fact, TrajNet is a superset of diverse datasets that requires to train on four families of trajectories, namely 1) BIWI Hotel (orthogonal bird’s eye flight view, moving people), 2) Crowds UCY (3 datasets, tilted bird’s eye view, camera mounted on building or utility poles, moving people), 3) MOT PETS (multisensor, different human activities) and 4) Stanford Drone Dataset (8 scenes, high orthogonal bird’s eye flight view, different agents as people, cars etc. ), for a total of 11448 trajectories. Testing is requested on diverse partitions of BIWI Hotel, Crowds UCY, Stanford Drone Dataset, and is evaluated by a specific server (ground-truth testing data is unavailable for applicants).
