Towards Agent-Based Crowd Simulation in Airports Using Games Technology
نویسندگان
چکیده
We adapt popular video games technology for an agent-based crowd simulation in an airport terminal. To achieve this, we investigate the unique traits of airports and implement a virtual crowd by exploiting a scalable layered intelligence technique in combination with physics middleware and a socialforces approach. Our experiments show that the framework runs at interactive frame-rate and evaluate the scalability with increasing number of agents demonstrating navigation behaviour.

A Data-driven Method for Crowd Simulation using a Holonification Model
In this paper, we present a data-driven method for crowd simulation with holonification model. With this extra module, the accuracy of simulation will increase and it generates more realistic behaviors of agents. First, we show how to use the concept of holon in crowd simulation and how effective it is. For this reason, we use simple rules for holonification. Using real-world data, we model the...
متن کاملContext-Aware Motion Diversi!cation for Crowd Simulation
L crowd simulation is important in computer games, movies, virtual training, and education applications. One popular approach, agent-based crowd simulation, considers the properties of each individual (agent) separately at every time step, enabling a highly realistic simulation of path navigation, cognitive reaction, collision avoidance, and animation control. Agent-based crowd simulation syste...
متن کاملSketch-Based Interface for Crowd Animation
In this paper, we propose a novel interface for controlling crowd animation. Crowd animation is widely used in movie production and computer games. However, to make an intended crowd animation, a lot of agent model parameters have to be tuned through trial and error. Our method estimates crowd parameters based on a few example paths given by a user through a sketch-based interface. The paramete...
متن کاملMultiagent Simulation for Large-scale Experiments in Physical Environments
It is very costly to conduct experiments to test smart environments installed in large-scale public spaces (e.g. airports and railway stations). As a tool to examine the design of such experiments beforehand, we developed a multiagent simulator integrating a large number of software agents and humans into a crowd that can produce complex group behaviors. In the testing of our emergency guidance...
