    Abstract

    In this paper two different pedestrian movement simulation models (a model of the social force type and a queuing network model) are compared with respect to their capability to predict individual walking times in a crossing area. Both models are calibrated using a trajectory data set and their relative performance on the estimation data set as well as on a separate validation data set is discussed. The social force type model is found to better predict the walking times as well as space usage in both in- and out-of sample comparison.
