Beyond Collision Avoidance: Multi-Robot Yielding and Spatial Affordance in Emergency Evacuations

Ning Zhou, Edmund R. Hunt, Nikolai W. F. Bode

As mobile service robots increasingly coexist with pedestrians, ensuring passively safe behaviour during confined emergency evacuations is critical. Existing multi-robot yielding s…

Multi-Agent Cooperative Transportation: Optimal and Efficient Task Allocation and Path Finding

Ning Zhou, Nikolai W. F. Bode, Edmund R. Hunt

Multi-robot systems are integral to modern logistics, but their capabilities are often limited to tasks executable by individual agents. This paper addresses a critical gap in exis…

Determining social mechanisms for sequential decision-making in a virtual pedestrian route choice experiment

Anna Sigalou, Yunhe Tong, Charlie Pilgrim +2

Moving groups are routinely faced with a choice of different routes as part of their daily lives, such as choosing between exits from a building. Differences in moving speeds and e…

Parameter Calibration in Crowd Simulation Models using Approximate Bayesian Computation

Nikolai Bode

Simulation models for pedestrian crowds are a ubiquitous tool in research and industry. It is crucial that the parameters of these models are calibrated carefully and ultimately it…

Comparing the route-choice behavior of pedestrians around obstacles in a virtual experiment and a field study

Hongliu Li, Jun Zhang, Long Xia +2

Pedestrians often need to decide between different routes they can use to reach their intended destinations, both during emergencies and in their daily lives. This route-choice beh…
