With growing numbers of intelligent autonomous systems in human environments, the ability
of such systems to perceive, understand, and anticipate human behavior becomes …

Understanding the behavior of human crowds is a key step toward a safer society and more
livable cities. Despite the individual variability and will of single individuals, human crowds …

Learning socially-aware motion representations is at the core of recent advances in multi-
agent problems, such as human motion forecasting and robot navigation in crowds. Despite …

Human crowds often bear a striking resemblance to interacting particle systems, and this
has prompted many researchers to describe pedestrian dynamics in terms of interaction …

Safe and social navigation is the key to deploying a mobile service robot in a human-
centered environment. Widespread acceptability of mobile service robots in daily life is …

Robots accompanying humans is one of the core capacities every service robot deployed in
urban settings should have. We present a novel robot companion approach based on the so …

With the extensive construction of rail tunnels, the subway has gradually become the most
widely used means of public transport. As important transportation hubs, the evacuation …

Pedestrian simulation plays an important role in the fields of transport station management,
building evacuation and safety management of large public events. Among the continuous …

Human motion models are finding an increasing number of novel applications in many
different fields, such as building design, computer graphics and robot motion planning. The …

The human-robot interaction community has developed many methods for robots to navigate
safely and socially alongside humans. However, experimental procedures to evaluate these …
