  • Publication number: 20220318694
    Abstract: An interaction based on a difference in a travelling direction is simulated, and a simulation of movement can be accurately performed. A head count ratio between a head count of the moving agents travelling in one direction and a head count of the moving agents travelling in another direction for each direction at a selected edge is obtained, a width size relative to a proceeding direction of the moving agent is calculated from the head count ratio relative to a width of the edge, and a population density is calculated with respect to each of the moving agents based on an area of a section which is obtained from a forward area length from a location of the moving agent and the width size calculated for the proceeding direction of the moving agent and the moving agents existing in the section for each direction.

  • Publication number: 20220299332
    Abstract: An information presentation device includes: a communication unit that receives the degree of congestion at each position on each of a plurality of routes from each of human flow sensors installed at predetermined intervals on each of the plurality of routes to a specific point; a calculation unit that calculates the required time for each time series of the route on the basis of the degree of congestion at each position in each of the routes; a prediction unit that inputs the time-series required time calculated for each of the routes to a predetermined device for predicting The required time of each of the routes learned in advance, and predicts the timing when the required time approaches the threshold for each of the routes as an output of the predetermined device; and an information management unit that identifies a route that requires inducement from the timing predicted for each of the routes, selects an incentive for prompting a change in the identified route and an inducement time for the incentive,

  • Publication number: 20220277202
    Abstract: The movement of an agent can be simulated with high accuracy using the attributes of the agent. A population density for each of mobile agents is calculated based on an area of a section from its position to a set front length and a size magnification of the other agent existing in the section. A moving speed of the mobile agent for each of the mobile agents is calculated based on a free walking speed of agent information, a calculated population density, and a predetermined parameter.

  • Publication number: 20220109955
    Abstract: Provided is a position estimation method in which a measurement signal and a response signal are transmitted and received between multiple n wireless stations respectively provided with known antennas installed at known positions different from each other and a wireless terminal station provided with a terminal antenna, RTT, which is a round-trip delay time of the transmission and reception, and RSSI, which is a strength of received radio waves of the signals, are measured, and a position of the wireless terminal station is estimated. The method includes: obtaining, as the position of the wireless terminal station, a solution of simultaneous equations of an RTT evaluation function fti for evaluating the estimate value of the position of the wireless terminal station that is estimated based on the RTT measured between the wireless terminal station and the known antenna i (i=1, 2, . . .
