AbstractMacroscopic and microscopic modeling have become mainstream methodologies for crowd simulation in dynamic environments. The two models make a trade-off between efficiency and accuracy, but neither of them is able to achieve both goals at the same time. With the aim of achieving both efficiency and accuracy, a hybrid modelling method is proposed in this paper for crowd simulation. This paper illustrates how the two types of models co-exist in a single simulation and work collaboratively. A case study for this method is also conducted, the simulation result of which shows that the proposed method can not only benefit from the macroscopic model by improving the simulation efficiency, but also obtain a fine-grained simulation result by adopting the microscopic model.
