Book of Donmon Teith

There are many applications of computer animation and simulation where it is necessary to model virtual crowds of autonomous agents. Some of these applications

This volume presents novel computational models for representing digital humans and their interactions with other virtual characters and meaningful environments

Research into the methods and techniques used in simulating crowds has developed extensively within the last few years, particularly in the areas of video games

This volume explores the complex problems that arise in the modeling and simulation of crowd dynamics in order to present the state-of-the-art of this emerging

Over the last several years there has been a growing interest in developing computational methodologies for modeling and analyzing movements and behaviors of �
