π Researcher, Developer, and Lecturer focused on AI for Mobility, Traffic Simulation, and Autonomous Systems
PhD-level researcher and current Lecturer of "Digital Systems Modeling with Generative AI" at Cornell University.
I specialize in building AI-powered, scalable systems for intelligent transportation, mobility modeling, and connected autonomous vehicles.
Passionate about combining rigorous systems thinking with practical, open-source development.
π‘ Currently expanding into Large Language Models (LLMs), generative agents, and deep learning to enhance mobility simulations, routing intelligence, and digital twin frameworks for smart cities.
I'm actively open to collaboration, research partnerships, or co-development in the following areas:
- π€ AI for Traffic Systems: Multi-agent behavior modeling, deep RL for vehicle and traveler simulation
- π Autonomous Vehicles: Multi-vehicle collaborative driving, motion planning, trajectory optimization
- π Traffic Modeling & Optimization: Vehicle routing, dynamic traffic assignment, operations research
- π οΈ Open-Source Simulation Tools: SUMO-based frameworks, traffic control APIs, agent-based extensions
- π Multi-Resolution Modeling: Integrated microscopic and macroscopic traffic flow simulations
- π§ Generative AI & LLMs: Memory-aware agents, BERT/GPT for travel demand modeling, AI-based behavior generation
- π°οΈ Digital Twins & Smart Cities: Real-time mobility simulations, emissions modeling, IoT-data integration
