Researchers introduce VRU-CIPI framework to predict Vulnerable Road Users' crossing intentions at intersections.The framework utilizes a sequential attention-based model with GRU and Transformer self-attention mechanism.VRU-CIPI achieves a high accuracy of 96.45% on UCF-VRU dataset, with real-time inference speed of 33 frames per second.Integrating with Infrastructure-to-Vehicles communication enhances intersection safety by activating crossing signals and warning connected vehicles.
