Complex Agent Representations for Crowd Simulations

1. Complex Agent Representations for Crowd Simulations are used to Simulate the motion of realistic, large, dense crowds of autonomous agents which is still a challenge for the computer graphics community. Common approximations end up failing by either being too similar to either particle simulations, or lacking the realities of human behavior such as ignoring psychological states or ignoring human actions like pushing.

The identification of which mechanisms should be simulated is difficult.

The use of discrete agents can be used as either an alternative to continuum simulations, or in conjunction with them.

2. Body Section In real time modeling, efficiency issues exist.

Crowd simulations for virtual environments must deal with the trade-offs between realistic behavior, control and cost.

In panic situations, one approach is to use the Helbing model.

Ideally though, agents use directives governed by human approximations of factors like belief, desire and intention.

Virtual reality training system for urban emergency situations is one use of Complex Agent Representations for Crowd Simulations.

The design of emergency evacuation and egress requires the better modeling of human interactions with others.

A future direction may be in having agents learn from experience.
