Figure 1.

Density distributions as measured in the environment ( in red, in blue, axes chosen in such a way that walking on the left corresponds to have on the left of the figure). Error bars are obtained as standard deviations of values of averaged over time windows of length 1200 s.

Figure 3.

Relative velocity field around a pedestrian (based on all available observational data in the data collection location).

The frame is centred on pedestrian , the axis gives the relative position of pedestrian in the direction of (i.e., ), while the axis gives the relative position from left to right. The colour-bar reports average values in mm/s. The difference between values on the left and right, along with the very high relative velocity (violet) area on the back-right, suggest the presence of a right-oriented overtaking norm. The low velocity on the back (high velocity on the front) is probably related to collision avoiding behaviour for pedestrians moving in the same direction, while the low velocity area on the right and high velocity area on the left are probably related to group behaviour (friends that find themselves ahead will slow down and vice versa).

Figure 7.

Comparison between the observed density distribution (black) and simulated density distributions (blue and red) in .

Both simulated distributions are obtained using the ES (Elliptical Specification) model, the blue line showing results obtained under the TP (Tilt in Position) condition, the red line results obtained under the TV (Tilt in Velocity) condition. Average values and standard deviations (error bars) for simulated distributions are obtained over tests (using ) of the overall best solution over the independent runs of the GA (calibration over all the environments). Observed data error bars are obtained as in Fig. 1.
