Abstract: We present a computational framework for modeling geospatial dynamics of crowd emotions as part of anticipatory analysis. The framework is based on agent based modeling (ABM) and evaluation-activation space for emotion representation. ABM is a simulation technique that uses the actions and interactions of individual agents to represent the behavior of a given population […]

Abstract: Communication has a large impact on the outcome of a population’s response during disaster scenarios. The ability of a population to access news and disaster relief information as well as the population’s perception of the information they receive effects behavior during a disaster scenario. In this paper, two agent-based rumor (information) spreading models are […]
