Abstract

Using a data-driven approach, a heterogeneous populated agent-based model of an airport security checkpoint is calibrated and validated. It is found that average performance using the model can be replicated to a sufficient degree. The heterogenous population could become useful when different passenger fractions - with different performance per passenger type - are analysed for different security checkpoint configurations. Furthermore, time-dependent agent performance could improve the models validity.
