Conditional Behavior Prediction

Conditional behavior prediction (CBP) focuses on anticipating the actions of agents, such as humans or vehicles, given a specific context, particularly the actions of another agent (e.g., a robot or autonomous vehicle). Current research emphasizes developing models that accurately predict behavior under intervention, moving beyond simple observational models and addressing the limitations of overly confident predictions. This involves exploring various model architectures, including set-based approaches offering computational advantages over regression-based methods, and developing robust evaluation metrics. CBP is crucial for enabling safe and efficient human-robot collaboration and autonomous systems navigation in complex, interactive environments.
