The collective behavior of human crowds often exhibits surprisingly regular patterns of
movement. These patterns stem from social interactions between pedestrians such as when …

When people walk together in groups or crowds they must coordinate their walking speed
and direction with their neighbors. This paper investigates how a pedestrian visually controls …

Pedestrians will form groups in both normal and emergency sometimes. Members of these
groups usually have certain social relations. We study emergency evacuation of pedestrians …

In immersive Virtual Reality systems, users tend to move in a Virtual Environment as they
would in an analogous physical environment. In this work, we investigated how user …

The collective behavior of crowds is thought to emerge from local interactions between
pedestrians. One widely assumed interaction is heading alignment. We tested four …

Virtual reality (VR) is a valuable experimental tool for studying human movement, including
the analysis of interactions during locomotion tasks for developing crowd simulation …

While collision avoidance has been the most active topic in pedestrian simulation, the
modelling of other kinds of behaviours appears to be essential for better realism. Thus …

Many models of crowd behavior are based on local interactions between pedestrians, but
little is known about the actual mechanisms governing these interactions. In Experiments 1 …

Abstract The design of Sensory Substitution Devices (SSDs) often relies on the belief that
the information supplied by the devices should allow the construction of spatial mental …

Rapid advances in the field of Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) over the past several
years have led to artificial agents (AAs) capable of producing behavior that meets or …
