      abstract     = {Evacuation signs are important for emergency evacuation in
                      complex buildings. The interaction between evacuees and
                      evacuation signs attracted much attention. However, current
                      research mainly considers the visibility of signs and
                      depends on inaccurate video analysis and subjective
                      after-drill questionnaires, and the impact of surrounding
                      people is ignored. This paper utilized an eye-tracking
                      device to collect the sign detection data objectively and
                      concentrated on the following behavior with surrounding
                      people. Based on the results of a series of experiments, it
                      is found that not all pedestrians detect the signs due to
                      objective and subjective ignorance. Even the sign is
                      detected, there exist some evacuees who decide to follow
                      other pedestrians rather than sign guidance. Consequently, a
                      new interaction logic and a new wayfinding method are
                      applied in an evacuation model. The simulation results show
                      the significant difference between the two logics in this
                      paper. It describes that the original logic overestimates
                      the sign guidance effect and underestimates the evacuation
                      time strongly. The new logic can be applied in the
                      building’s design and security evaluation to enhance
                      evacuation safety.},
