Estimation of street crossing intention from a pedestrian's posture on a sidewalk using multiple image frames
Ryusuke Furuhashi, Keiichi Yamada · 2011
Pedestrian protection is an active area in the research field of advanced driver assistance systems. A pedestrian who intends to cross the road is more critical to the driver than one who has no intention. This paper proposes a method for estimating the crossing intention of a pedestrian on a sidewalk from the pedestrian's posture and change in posture in multiple frames during a short period of video images. We evaluate the method in an indoor simulated environment and a real, outdoor environment and demonstrate the results and performance.
