ABSTRACT
Multi-agent distributed containment control has been widely used in industrial and military fields. Taking the modeling of crowd protection/evacuation behavior in mass incidents as the application background, this paper proposed a novel containment control method with multi-dynamic leaders and global support trajectory and formation constraints. Our method can make the moving trajectories of multiple dynamic leader agents meet the constraint of support trajectories and desired formation, and drive the moving trajectories of the follower agents to converge to the dynamic convex hull composed of multiple leaders. On this basis, the models of crowd protection/evacuation behavior are constructed by introducing the community division algorithm.

The hierarchical behavior model for crowd simulation
VRCAI '09: Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Virtual Reality Continuum and its Applications in IndustryWe present a hierarchical behavior model to simulate realistic crowd behaviors. This model is composed of two parts. One is the low density behavior module, emphasizing the autonomy and diversity of the behaviors. The other is high density behavior ...
