This companion paper reports the ICPR 2026 TVRID competition on privacy-aware top-view person re-identification. We present the competition setting, the released RGB-Depth dataset, and a summary of final results with descriptions of the top entries. TVRID contains 86 identities captured by four synchronized overhead Intel RealSense D455 cameras, with paired RGB/Depth streams and structured geometric variation across flat, ascent, descent, and oblique viewpoints. The evaluation protocol includes three tracks: RGB Re-ID, Depth Re-ID, and RGB$\leftrightarrow$Depth cross-modal retrieval. Submissions are ranked using mAP and CMC-1 under a unified server-side evaluation. The final results show a clear difficulty ordering (RGB $>$ Depth $>$ Cross-Modal), highlighting both the challenge of modality-constrained retrieval and the feasibility of strong performance with modality-invariant learning. By releasing the dataset at https://zenodo.org/records/17909410, the evaluation scripts at https://github.com/RaphaelDel/ICPR-TVRID, and the accompanying documentation, TVRID establishes a reproducible benchmark for top-view, depth-based, and cross-modal person re-id.

Pedestrian trajectory prediction requires modeling temporal dynamics, multimodal cues, and social interactions in crowded environments. Existing methods often address these factors separately or entangle them in costly attention blocks, limiting scalability, flexibility, and interpretability. We propose a three-step hierarchical Transformer that explicitly separates temporal encoding, multimodal fusion, and scene-level interaction reasoning. Lightweight GRU summaries enable efficient cross-modal attention, while social attention over time--agent tokens captures inter-pedestrian influences at manageable cost. Experiments on JTA, JRDB, and the Pedestrians and Cyclists in Road Traffic dataset show state-of-the-art performance on real-world datasets (JRDB, Urban) and competitive results on JTA. Ablation and qualitative analyses confirm the contribution of each stage and the model's ability to anticipate complex behaviors such as early turning.
