(eng): Optimizing movement of pedestrians is a topic of great importance, calling for modeling crowds. In this contribution we address the problem of evacuation, where pedestrians choose their actions in order to leave the endangered area. To address such decision making process we exploit the well-known floor-field model with modeling based on Markov decision processes (MDP). In addition, we also allow the pedestrians to cooperate and exchange their information (probability distribution) about the state of the surrounding environment. This information in form of probability distributions is then combined in the Kullback–Leibler sense. We show in the simulation study how the use of MDP and information sharing positively influences the amount of inhaled CO and the evacuation time.
