Motion Prediction (MP) of multiple surroundings agents is a crucial task in arbitrarily complex environments, from simple social robots to self-driving vehicles. Current techniques tackle this problem using end-to-end pipelines, where the input data is usually a rendered top-view of the physical information and the past trajectories of the most relevant agents; leveraging this information is a must to obtain optimal performance. In that sense, a reliable Autonomous Driving (AD) system must produce reasonable predictions on time, however, despite many approaches use simple ConvNets and LSTMs, models might be too complex for real-time applications when using both sources of information (map and past trajectories). Moreover, the performance of such models highly depends on the amount of training data, which can be expensive (particularly the annotated High-Definition (HD) maps).
In this work, we propose several baselines for the well-known Argoverse Motion Forecasting Benchmark. We aim to develop compact models using state-of-the-art techniques for MP, including attention mechanisms and GNNs. Our lightweight models use standard social information and interpretable map information such as points from the driveable area and plausible centerlines, in opposition to black-box CNN-based methods for map processing, to generate plausible multimodal trajectories, achieving state-of-the-art accuracy.

First of all, we highly encourage the use of the VSCode editor, regarding the debugging capability and its quite interesting extensions.
Coming soon ...
Tested in Ubuntu 16.04, Ubuntu 18.04.

In order to install torch-geometric and associated modules for the GNN computations, please check the following documentation:
https://pytorch-geometric.readthedocs.io/en/latest/notes/installation.html
E.g.
pip install torch-scatter torch-sparse torch-cluster torch-spline-conv torch-geometric -f https://data.pyg.org/whl/torch-1.13.0+cu116.html
N.B. If you find any error with the packages, try to install again the specific package separately.
Download argoverse-api (1.0) in another folder (out of this directory):
git clone https://github.com/argoai/argoverse-api.git
Go to the argoverse-api folder and install the requirements of setup.py.
N.B. Comment those packages that have specific versions, and just write the name of the package in order to have the latest version. E.g. numpy==1.19.9 -> numpy. N.B. You must have the conda environment activated in order to have argoverse as a Python package of your environment
pip install -e .
Don't worry if there are some errors (such as "ERROR: Could not build wheels for opencv-python which use PEP 517 and cannot be installed directly"), just run pip install -e . again.
Finally, copy the map information of the Argoverse Motion-Forecasting
Check data/README.md.
Assuming your model is in model/models/your_model.py/, you must have the name of this script in the train.py script. Additionally, it is advisable to have a config file and trainer per model, since they must be quite different. For example:
python train.py --trainer mapfe4mp --device_gpu 3
Recommended VSCode extensions:
- Jupyter
- Python
- Python for VSCode
If you cannot open a Jupyter Notebook correctly, just reinstall the Jupyter extension in your VSCode editor.
Please, be aware that after installing a new extension, you should reload your VSCode window.
Please check our papers for further details.
To check your quantitative results using the Tensorboard tool, execute (assuming you have cloned this repo in your $HOME folder):
cd ~/mapfe4mp/save/argoverse/your_model/your_split_percent && tensorboard --logdir . --port=your_port
E.g. cd ~/mapfe4mp/save/argoverse/mapfe4mp/100.0_percent && python -m tensorboard.main --logdir . --port=6100
If you would like to access all the qualitative samples for the Argoverse 1.0 validation set, please contact us.
We are preparing a tutorial notebook for generating these visualizations:
