arXiv:2511.00266v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Accurate trajectory prediction is crucial for safe and reliable autonomous driving systems, requiring models that capture long-term temporal dependencies while accounting for social interactions among neighboring vehicles in highway driving scenarios. While Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) networks have been widely used in the domain of trajectory prediction, they have limitations such as limited memory capacity and scalar cell state. The recently introduced Extended Long Short Term Memory (xLSTM) addresses these limitations of traditional LSTMs
The continuous advancements in AI research, particularly in addressing limitations of existing models like LSTMs, are driving the development of more sophisticated solutions for complex real-world problems such as autonomous driving.
Improved trajectory prediction capabilities are critical for enhancing the safety and reliability of autonomous driving systems, accelerating their deployment and broader societal impact.
This development suggests a pathway to more robust and context-aware autonomous vehicle decision-making through better understanding of long-term temporal dependencies and social interactions.
