Behavioral dynamics of steering, obstable avoidance, and route selection.
Abstract
The authors investigated the dynamics of steering and obstacle avoidance, with the aim of predicting routes through complex scenes. Participants walked in a virtual environment toward a goal (Experiment 1) and around an obstacle (Experiment 2) whose initial angle and distance varied. Goals and obstacles behave as attractors and repellers of heading, respectively, whose strengths depend on distance. The observed behavior was modeled as a dynamical system in which angular acceleration is a function of goal and obstacle angle and distance. By linearly combining terms for goals and obstacles, one could predict whether participants adopt a route to the left or right of an obstacle to reach a go (Experiment 3). Route selection may emerge from on-line steering dynamics, making explicit path planning unnecessary.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
