BEAR project (from BEhavioral Analysis to modeling and simulation of interactions between walkeRs) is funded by the Inria Associate Team program (2019-2021). BEAR is a collaborative project between France (Inria Rennes) and Canada (Wilfrid Laurier University and Waterloo University), dedicated to the simulation of human behavior during interactions between pedestrians. In this context, the project aims at providing more realistic models and simulation by considering the strong coupling between pedestrians’ visual perception and their locomotor adaptations
