abstract = { Models of crowd behavior facilitate analysis and prediction of human group
behavior, where people are affected by each other's presence. Unfortunately, existing models
leave many open challenges. In particular, psychology models often offer only qualitative
description, while computer science models are often simplistic, and are not reusable from one
simulated phenomenon to the next. We propose a novel model of crowd behavior, based on
Festinger's Social Comparison Theory (SCT). We propose a concrete algorithmic
framework for SCT, and evaluate its implementation in several crowd behavior scenarios. Results
from task measures and human judges evaluation shows
that the SCT model produces improved results compared to base models from the literature.},
