Abstract:Crowd simulation is a computationally expensive task. Many models to simulate crowds have been developed over the years and can be classified into two big groups (macroscopic and microscopic) according to how the agents are managed. In some macroscopic models the agents are grouped and guided by the potential field of their group. The construction of potential fields is the bottleneck of those models, so it is necessary to use a small number of groups in order for a simulation to run at interactive frame rates… Show more
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.
