Biography

The role of machine learning in smart cities is to provide a seamless and data-driven operating environment. This is only one of the visions/goals of smart cities but one that is the focus of our research. Our research focuses on devising new algorithmic, statistical, mathematical, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and hybrid methods to tackle complex problems in urban computing and intelligent transportation, in addition to analytical and visualization methods to make sense of spatial-temporal data. We leverage the data to make cities smarter, environmental resources sustainable, and quality of life better for citizens.
