About me

I am an Associate Professor in the School of Transportation at Southeast University. I received my PhD degree in Civil Engineering (Transportation) from the University of New South Wales, and earned a Bachelor degree in Civil Engineering from Nanjing Tech University and a Master’s degree in Transportation Engineering from Southeast University. During my PhD, I worked at the CityX Lab at the Research Center for Integrated Transport Innovation. Prior to joining Southeast University, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of New South Wales for two years. My current research centers on complex and future transportation system modeling, simulation, and optimization. My Chinese website is also available.

For prospective students

I am constantly looking for 1-2 Master’s students and 1 PhD student every year who are excited about mathematical modeling and machine learning for smart transportation. If you are interested, please send me an email. Background is not limited to transportation engineering, management science, computer science, applied mathematics.
