Agents in Social Science

(a) Single agents.
(b) Agents in groups.
FIGURE 5.15: Agents walking in the scene.
Figure 5.15(a) shows single person not associated in groups as compared to
Figure 5.15(b) showing groups represented by different colors.
Various tools now exist that allow crowds to be modeled in different situations. These include VICrowd, Legion, each allowing multiple rule interactions
and control to be introduced in the model. Designing such models requires
considerable input from modelers, social scientists and crowd researchers to
build believable crowds. The more complexity of lower and higher levels on
interaction, the more believable crowds are.
