- I am a Lecturer in Traffic and Urban Analytics at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Auckland. My research focuses on the use of data analytics and computer simulation techniques to solve urban complex problems. In Data Analytics, I adapt and develop machine learning methods to analyse Big data of individuals, such as Smart Card, mobile phone or social network data. In Computer Simulation, I am specialised in the development of data-driven Agent-based models, a cutting-edge simulation technique of heterogeneous agents interacting with each other, to explain complex urban systems.
- I have been contributing to the development and delivery of large research projects, such as an ERC Horizon 2020 in the UK (DUST), and the Premier Innovation Initiative in Australia (PII).
- I am looking for motivated PhD students to work with me on research topics related, but not limited to, the integration of data analytics/machine learning/artificial intelligence with computer simulation to solve complex urban transport problems. Students with high GPA will have a good chance of obtaining the University of Auckland's Doctoral scholarships. Applications are also welcome from country-specific scholarship students (e.g. Vietnam's VIED Project 911 fellowship and China's CSC, more information can be found here.
