Abstract


Simultaneously and accurately forecasting the behavior of many interacting agents is imperative for computer vision applications to be widely deployed (e.g., autonomous vehicles, security, surveillance, sports). In this paper, we present a technique using conditional variational autoencoder which learns a model that "personalizes'' prediction to individual agent behavior within a group representation. Given the volume of data available and its adversarial nature, we focus on the sport of basketball and show that our approach efficiently predicts context-specific agent motions. We find that our model generates results that are three times as accurate as previous state of the art approaches (5.74 ft vs. 17.95 ft).
