用扩散模型统一追踪与预测人类运动，提升无人机避障能力

Robust and accurate perception of humans in their 3D scene context is essential for integrating robots into everyday environments. Existing approaches, however, often fail to predict plausible and accurate human motion estimates that are consistent with the surrounding scene, especially in the presence of heavy occlusions or partial visibility. This can limit both safety and efficiency for robotic operations. We introduce HumanFlow, a latent diffusion model that unifies human motion tracking and forecasting, conditioned on the 3D scene context. We show that our human motion model produces smooth and accurate predictions under challenging conditions, including heavy occlusions, and outperforms state-of-the-art methods in tracking accuracy while being significantly more efficient. Furthermore, we show how HumanFlow's latent space can be tightly coupled with control by conditioning a flow-matching-based, approximate MPC policy on these representations. We validate our policy in simulation with real human trajectories for MAV social navigation, demonstrating superior navigation performance and remaining collision-free, even under partial observability of the human.
