Research Interests
- Big data analytics for transportation: travel demand analysis, transportation safety data analysis, discrete choice modeling;
- Connected and autonomous vehicles: technologies, and impacts;
- Multimodal transportation and shared mobility: non-motorized transportation (bicycle and public transit) systems planning and operations, carsharing, and bike-sharing;
- Traffic system operation and control: traffic simulation, and active traffic management (variable speed limits and managed lanes); and
- Transportation system analysis and network modeling: equilibrium-based traffic assignment, network design and highway improvements, travel time reliability, freeway bottleneck identification and mitigation, and congestion pricing.
- Operations research: Nonlinear programming, integer programming, metaheuristics, network optimization.
