#1 Survival Instincts: A Multidisciplinary Exploration of Crowd Behavior and Game Strategies for Effective Evacuation Planning

The Art of Evacuation project aims to explore the behavior of pedestrians during emergency situations using an interdisciplinary approach by combining cellular automata models with game theory. The primary objectives of this project include:


  • Developing a cellular automaton model to simulate the movement of pedestrians during evacuation scenarios.

  • Applying various "games" to identify different strategies for resolving conflicts over limited space.

  • Trying to identify the optimal evacuation strategy.


By achieving these objectives, The Art of Evacuation project aims to contribute to the field of crowd management and enhance our understanding of pedestrian dynamics during evacuation scenarios.


Requirements: Good programming skills; the tutoring will be in English.
