Autonomous navigation among people is a com-plex problem that also exhibits considerable variation depending on the type of environment and people involved. Here we consider navigation among crowds that exhibit flow-like behavior like people moving through a train station. We propose a novel pseudo-fluid model of crowd flow for such problems. These have an intuitive physical interpretation and do ...
