A Point Process Model for Evacuation Flows: The Hawkes Mode

Ongoing
Results from a case study of evacuations of 14 office and residential buildings in the United States led us to model occupant exit times as a Hawkes point process, N(t). N(t) the number of evacuee exits in the time interval (0,t]. Because the Hawkes model is self-similar, human to human interaction
