🤖 AI Summary
This study addresses the challenge of balancing safety and efficiency in dynamic human-robot collaboration environments, where precise human motion prediction is essential for optimizing robot planning. To this end, we systematically compare the applicability of traditional statistical models and modern deep learning architectures within human-robot interaction scenarios. Specifically, we evaluate three representative methods—Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM), TransFusion, and Graph-Mixer—on the task of human trajectory prediction. Our analysis delineates the performance boundaries and respective strengths of these distinct algorithmic paradigms. Furthermore, we validate their potential to enhance robotic motion planning accuracy, ensure collaborative safety, and improve adaptability in dynamic settings. Ultimately, this work provides empirical evidence to guide algorithm selection for practical human-robot collaboration systems.
📝 Abstract
This paper compares three human motion prediction methods - GMM-based clustering, TransFusion, and Graph-Mixer - evaluating their effectiveness in human-robot collaboration.
