Research into the methods and techniques used in simulating crowds has developed
extensively within the last few years, particularly in the areas of video games and film …

We address the difficult open problem of emulating the rich complexity of real pedestrians in
urban environments. Our artificial life approach integrates motor, perceptual, behavioral, and …

There are many applications of computer animation and simulation where it is necessary to
model virtual crowds of autonomous agents. Some of these applications include site …

The navigation activity is an every day practice for any human being capable of locomotion.
Our objective in this work is to reproduce this crucial human activity inside virtual …

We present a novel approach for interactive navigation and planning of multiple agents in
crowded scenes with moving obstacles. Our formulation uses a precomputed roadmap that …

In games, entertainment, medical and architectural applications, the creation of populated
virtual city environments has recently become widespread. In this paper we want to provide …

We present a novel algorithm for navigating a large number of independent agents in
complex and dynamic environments. We compute adaptive roadmaps to perform global path …

The reported study follows the footsteps of Heider, and Simmel (1944)[Heider, F., & Simmel,
M.(1944). An experimental study of apparent behavior. American Journal of Psychology, 57 …

Architectural and urban planning applications require animations of people to present an
accurate and compelling view of a new environment. Ideally, these animations would be …

The last few years have seen great maturation in understanding how to use computer
graphics technology to portray 3D embodied characters or virtual humans. Unlike the off …
