Allbeck's research focuses on the intersection of animation, artificial intelligence, and psychology, particularly in simulating virtual humans and intelligent crowds. She develops frameworks for behavioral realism, agent decision-making, and crowd dynamics, with applications in virtual reality and cybersecurity training.
As director of the Games And Intelligent Animation (GAIA) Lab, she explores advanced simulation techniques including semantic virtual environments, parameterized memory models, and high-density autonomous crowd systems. Her work emphasizes creating agents that can interact plausibly with humans and environments.
