Looking Inside Out: Anticipating Driver Intent From Videos
Yung-chi Kung, Arthur Zhang, Junmin Wang, Joydeep Biswas
Anticipating driver intention is an important task when vehicles of mixed and varying levels of human/machine autonomy share roadways. Driver intention can be leveraged to improve road safety, such as warning surrounding vehicles in the event the driver is attempting a dangerous maneuver. In this work, we propose a novel method of utilizing in-cabin and external camera data to improve state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance in predicting future driver actions. Compared to existing methods, our approach explicitly extracts object and road-level features from external camera data, which we demonstrate are important features for predicting driver intention. Using our handcrafted features as inputs for both a transformer and an LSTM-based architecture, we empirically show that jointly utilizing in-cabin and external features improves performance compared to using in-cabin features alone. Furthermore, our models predict driver maneuvers more accurately and earlier than existing approaches, with an accuracy of 87.5% and an average prediction time of 4.35 seconds before the maneuver takes place. We release our model configurations and training scripts on https://github.com/ykung83/Driver-Intent-Prediction
