Responsibility
Xiaochen and Tanay worked on the project together. Both involved in discussing the ideas, designing the experiments and analyzing the results. As for the experiments, Xiaochen focused more on exploring and combining the freespace forecasting task with the baseline and did training and evaluation on the proposed model, Tanay spent time in exploiting the structure of the freespace decoder to try to improve the accuracy of freespace forecasting.
