This paper introduces a novel model for low-quality pedestrian trajectory prediction, the Social Non-stationary Transformers (NSTransformers), that merges the strengths of NSTransformers and Spatio-Temporal graph transformer (STAR). The model can capture social interaction cues among pedestrians and integrate features across spatial and temporal dimensions to enhance the precision and resilience of trajectory predictions. We also propose an enhanced loss function that combines diversity loss with logarithmic root mean squared error (log-RMSE) to guarantee the reasonableness and diversity of the generated trajectories. This design adapts well to complex pedestrian interaction scenarios, thereby improving the reliability and accuracy of trajectory prediction. Furthermore, we integrate a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) to model the randomness inherent in pedestrian trajectories. Compared to the conventional standard Gaussian distribution, our GAN approach better simulates the intricate distribution found in pedestrian trajectories, enhancing the trajectory prediction’s diversity and robustness. Experimental results reveal that our model outperforms several state-of-the-art methods. This research opens the avenue for future exploration in low-quality pedestrian trajectory prediction.
