A mathematical model of pedestrian movement on the basis of the stochastic cellular automata approach is proposed. A floor field (FF) model is taken as a basis model. The FF models imply that virtual people follow the shortest path strategy; meanwhile, they also follow the shortest time strategy. The focus of this study is mathematical formalization and model implementation of these features of pedestrian movement. Some results of the simulation are reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
