Overview
UMANS (Unified Microscopic Agent Navigation Simulator) is a crowd-simulation framework that can reproduce many different algorithms for local navigation behavior (such as collision avoidance) in crowds. UMANS translates these algorithms to a single principle, while unifying as many simulation settings and details as possible. This makes it a suitable platform for experimentation and for honest comparisons between algorithms.
For more information on the theory behind UMANS, please see our I3D 2020 publication “Generalized Microscopic Crowd Simulation using Costs in Velocity Space”.
