I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Lehigh University. I obtained my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from Rutgers University. My research focuses on addressing real-world societal challenges within the Cyber-Physical paradigm, commonly referred to as Cyber-Physical Systems. Technically, my work combines ubiquitous/mobile sensing, spatio-temporal machine learning, and reinforcement learning to bridge the physical and cyber worlds, with feedback loops from the cyber to the physical domain. I am especially interested in how human factors play a role in the paradigm. The applications of my research have been deployed and evaluated in various domains, such as intelligent transportation systems, logistics, on-demand gig economy, last-mile mobility, and smart cities.
I am actively looking for motivated graduate/undergraduate/visiting students to work in my lab. Please email me your CV and all the transcripts if you are interested.
