(2008)Authors: Yersin, Maïm, Morini, Thalman
Presented by: Jessica Siewert
Content of presentation
• The Method:– Previous work– The architecture– Implementation– Experiments– Developments since
• Assessment
Introduction – Previous work
• Agent-based (low performance)
• Behavioral model (no high level control)
• Navigation graph (no inter-pedestrian collision avoid.)
• Various other approaches (no indiv. characteristics)
• Hybrid approaches
Introduction – Now we get…
• Improved hybrid architecture• Realistic motion paths (planning)• Realistic short term avoidance• Small group behaviors
Introduction – Our method…
• Hybrid: – potential field– Navigation graph– New agent-based short term collision avoidance
• Three regions of interest – architecture• Smooth transition between ROI’s
The architecture – Overview
• ROI 2:– Outside of view: no interest– Path planning by navigation graph– No collision handling
• ROI 1:– Visible in view: low interest– Path planning by navigation graph– Collision avoidance by potential field
• ROI 0:– Right in front of the camera– Path planning and collision avoidance by potential field
Implementation
• Initialization• Classification• Potential field computation• Improved short-term avoidance algorithm• Steering• Continuity maintanance
Initialization & classification
• Active vertices• Grid composing• Elimination of cells• Linkage to neighbors• ROI 0, 1 and 2 lists
Potential field computation
• Goals• Subgoals• Sets/groups• Waypoints• Only in ROI 0/just outside ROI 0
Short-term avoidance
• Maximize speed, then minimize detours• “Potential field failure”• Identification of cells• Security check• Emergency avoidance
Steering & continuity
• Reynolds’ seek behavior (ROI 0 and 1)• Linear steering in ROI 2• We use potential field for all coll. Av.• Always update graph of ROI 1, even in ROI 0• Test graph path when exiting ROI 0
Experiments – Claim recall
• Improved hybrid architecture• Realistic motion paths (planning)• Realistic short term avoidance• Small group behaviors• Smooth transition between ROI’s

Developments since then

Assessment
• Circle approach• Ermergency avoidance changes everything• Skipping grid cells• Size of the cells• Fast pedestrians?
Assessment
• Decomposition methods/robustness?• Crowd behavior – more decoupled sets• Threshold experimentation• Speeding up/slowing down relations• De-linkage out of view
