Title
A Role-Dependent Data-Driven Approach for High-Density Crowd Behavior Modeling.
Abstract
In this article, we propose a role-dependent (RD) data-driven modeling approach to simulate pedestrians’ motion in high-density scenes. It is commonly observed that pedestrians behave quite differently when walking in a dense crowd. Some people explore routes toward their destinations. Meanwhile, some people deliberately follow others, leading to lane formation. Based on these observations, two roles are included in the proposed model: leader and follower. The motion behaviors of leader and follower are modeled separately. Leaders’ behaviors are learned from real crowd motion data using state-action pairs, while followers’ behaviors are calculated based on specific targets that are obtained dynamically during the simulation. The proposed RD model is trained and applied to different real-world datasets to evaluate its generality and effectiveness. The simulation results demonstrate that the RD model is capable of simulating crowd behaviors in crowded scenes realistically and reproducing collective crowd behaviors such as lane formation.
