Research Experience

Before joining CityU-DG, was a Postdoc Research Fellow at the Institute for Transport Planning and Systems of ETH Zürich. Major research interests lie in autonomous driving, motion planning, car-following model, lane-change model, and intelligent transportation systems.

Education

PhD from City University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Jianping Wang, graduated in Summer 2022; M.Eng. from ENSIIE, France, 2014-2017; B.Sc. from Xidian University, China, 2011-2015.

Background

Current research interests include spatial-temporal modelling, motion planning, trajectory prediction, car-following model, lane-change model, and intelligent transportation systems.
