TL;DR

Abstract
The objective of this paper is to identify the behavioral issues arising in the context of pedestrian dynamics, analyze how they have been addressed in the literature and propose some potential research tracks. We particularly focus on an application in the context of automatic video surveillance and present first ideas for the design of a pedestrian simulator.
