Trajectory Prediction Method for person under WSN with Hierarchical Envelope Adversarial Domain Adaptation

Pedestrian trajectory prediction holds significant applications across autonomous driving, intelligent surveillance, and smart cities. However, the complexity and unpredictability of pedestrian interactions make this task a persistent challenge. Current models face two common limitations: 1) Consider only a single type of social coupling. This introduces redundant interactions. More critically, it fails to account for the varying nature of trajectory coupled across different scenarios and between different pedestrians. Consequently, models cannot deeply adapt to diverse scenes. 2) Inadequate domain shift handling. Although very few methods address domain shift, they rely on statistical criterion-based domain distribution alignment. Such approaches exhibit strong dependency on predefined statistical metrics. This leads to significant limitations in complex and dynamic environments. To address these problems, a Hierarchical Envelope Adversarial Domain Adaptation with Loosely-Tightly coupled model (HEADA-LTCTPM) is proposed. First, an envelope sample construction mechanism was proposed. It constructs envelope samples and extends them into graph structures. Secondly, an adversarial domain adaptation module was proposed. This integrates both local and global domain adaptation strategies. It dynamically adapts to diverse coupled relationships across scenarios. These innovations collectively enhance prediction accuracy and robustness. In the experimental section, two representative public datasets were employed for validation and comprehensive comparisons with six relevant baseline algorithms were conducted. Results demonstrate that our model achieves significantly higher accuracy compared to existing methods, with the ADE and FDE metrics reduced by 17.6% and 19.1% respectively. The time overhead meets practical requirements, which verifies the effectiveness of our key innovations.
