Abstract: Researches on crowd behavior in emergent events are important practical significance for emergency management, most of the current crowd models are collision detection, motion plan and so on. According to the emergency scene analysis of surveillance video, following behaviors of crowd are obviously, modeling following behaviors is an interesting topic in crowd simulation. A following model was proposed based on classical social force model and OCEAN personlity theory, the concept of panic was introduced,, and following conditions of individual was set up, the speed formulas of individual were constructed. Experimental results show that the following model can closely simulate the collective behavior of emergent crowd.

Key words: following, crowd simulation, personality, social force
