Abstract:We study the bidirectional pedestrian flow in a straight corridor using a floor field cellular automaton model, where a game-theoretical framework is exclusively introduced to deal with conflicts that multiple pedestrians are trying to move to the same target position. The pedestrians can behave as either cooperators or defectors, depending on whether they show gentle or aggressive in face of conflicts, respectively. When competing with cooperators, a defector always obtains a relatively greater payoff, charac… Show more
