• Using large scale location data from ride-sourcing vehicles of DIDI(similar to Uber and Lyft), developed clustering algorithms to detect ‘trip ends’ for origin-destination (OD) analysis using GPS based vehicle.
• Using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Partial Least Square (PLS), and Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) methods for short term speed and travel time prediction and subsequent performance comparison of loop detector.
• Using Python in conjunction with ESRI ArcPy package to batch process billions of rows of GPS based vehicle trajectory data which were later used for OD estimation and travel-time prediction
• Using ESRI ArcGIS performed spatial analysis and developed visualizations for origin-destination (OD) estimation results by manipulating shapefiles and raster data
• Using R and REST APIs, collected and analyzed incident, weather, and loop detector-based traffic volume data from Freeways (I-5 in the state of Washington) for short-term speed and travel time prediction
• Using Microsoft SQL Server for managing, cleaning, and aggregating multiple large-scale datasets (millions to billions of rows) and Microsoft PowerApps for making an interactive dashboard to visualize the outcomes

• Instructed the Introduction to Transportation Engineering course to a class of 70-80 students where basics of transportation engineering and planning were explained to students to facilitate their understanding
• Led student teams to conduct field studies where vehicle and pedestrian count data were collected for traffic signal design purposes

• Using machine learning techniques, developed methods to identify the Vehicle Flow State that can explain the underlying nature of the movement of an individual vehicle
• Developed an Android app to collect GPS data using smartphones and managed the collected data in an online SQL server

• Instructed multiple courses on Transportation Planning and Highway Engineering.
• Helped students about interpreting and analyzing traffic information and formulating solutions to problems

Doctor Of Philosophy (Phd), Transportation And Highway Engineering

• Developed machine learning methods to estimate Vehicle Flow State (VFS) from GPS based vehicle trajectory data using Hidden Markov Model.
