The present disclosure relates to a method performed by an assessment system (1) for predicting near-future behavior of road users in surroundings of a vehicle (2). The assessment system obtains (1001) a state of the vehicle, which vehicle state comprises at least a pose of the vehicle in view of a digital map (22); obtains (1002) from the digital map, map data associated with the vehicle pose, wherein the map data is transformed to a selected coordinate system; obtains (1003) states of road users (4) in the vehicle's surroundings; and identifies (1004) by assessing the road users states in view of the map data in the selected coordinate system, lane segments (4) void from road users (3). Furthermore, the assessment system encodes (1005) network input (5) comprising data associated with the lane segments, data associated with the road users states and historic data associated with the road users states and/or lane segments, into respective states-related data (61) associated with the road users states and segment-related data (62) associated with dynamic start and end boundaries of the lane segments. Moreover, the assessment system feeds (1006) respective states-related data and segment-related data to one or more neural networks configured to encode the road users states in view of the lane segments spatially and temporally, and output spatial- and temporal-processed respective states-related data (81) and segment-related data (82). The assessment system further feeds (1007) output spatial- and temporal-processed respective states-related data (811) and segment-related data (821) associated with one or more of the road users - referred to as target road user(s) (31) - to at least a first behavior-predicting neural network (9) configured to, by processing said data, predict and output data (90) indicating predicted near-future behavior of the target road user(s) in view of one or more of the lane segments.The disclosure also relates to an assessment system in accordance with the foregoing, a vehicle comprising such an assessment system, and a respective corresponding computer program product and non-volatile computer readable storage medium.
