doi:10.16182/j.issn1004731x.joss.201807007

Abstract

Abstract: A method for modeling the information exchange behavior in an emergent crowd evacuation is proposed in this paper. It describes several aspects of information exchange in dynamic environments, includes contents, characteristics and ways of exchange. The influence model of know information on evacuation decision is built by cost evaluation and path planning. Combined with the existing crowd locomotion model, our method could model and simulate crowd evacuation in emergent situation. Realistic results with dynamic information exchanges and dynamic behavioral decision of crowds are given. The simulation results have a high coincidence degree with the real person experiments.

Key words: crowd simulation, emergency evacuation, motion modeling, information exchange, path planning
