Modelling human perception processes in pedestrian dynamics: a hybrid approach

Modelling human perception processes in pedestrian dynamics: a hybrid approach

In this paper, we present a hybrid mathematical model describing crowd dynamics. More specifically, our approach is based on the well-established Helbing-like discrete model, where each pedestrian is individually represented as a dimensionless point and set to move in order to reach a target destination, with deviations deriving from both physical and social forces. In particular, physical forc...

Adaptive Tactical Decisions in Pedestrian Simulation: A Hybrid Agent Approach

A generic and hybrid approach for pedestrian dynamics to couple cellular automata with network flow models

Large pedestrian dynamics scenarios are difficult to simulate by models with high spatial resolution in reasonable time, due to high computational costs. Possible solutions are hybrid approaches, which combine models of different spatial scales. On the macroscopic scale, network flow models are used to model pedestrian dynamics. These models reduce the scenario to a simple network of nodes and ...

Transmission Dynamics of Malaria in Human Host: a Neuro-Fuzzy Approach

Cellular Automaton Approach to Pedestrian Dynamics - Theory

We present a 2-dimensional cellular automaton model for the simulation of pedestrian dynamics. The model is extremely efficient and allows simulations of large crowds faster than real time since it includes only nearest-neighbour interactions. Nevertheless it is able to reproduce collective effects and self-organization encountered in pedestrian dynamics. This is achieved by introducing a so-ca...
