夏威夷大学马诺阿分校招聘研究生科研助理/硕士/博士-智慧城市与交通方向

Graduate Research Assistantships available in Smart Cities and Mobility at the University of Hawaii at Manoa (UH-Manoa)

Two Graduate Research Assistantships are available as part of a growing Smart Cities and Mobility Research Group at the University of Hawaii at Manoa (UH-Manoa), in Honolulu, HI, USA. The research group develops and applies data-driven decision-making tools towards observing, analyzing, and anticipating urban mobility system outcomes, focusing on the human and built environment dimensions and behaviors.

The GRAs recruited will work specifically on developing methods that leverage new data types, including human movement trajectories, passive activity and travel data collected through mobile apps and LiDAR 3D point cloud data. Methods developed will inform and integrate with infrastructure design, including municipal and state urban street and intersection design guidelines. Two GRAs will be recruited to work on one of these two projects:
A)        Modeling Pedestrian Traffic Flows and Behaviors
B)        Deep Learning of LiDAR 3D Cloud Points for Complete Streets Design

Interests and skills in these methodological areas are beneficial:
A)        Econometrics
B)        Operations Research
C)        Deep Learning
D)        GIS/LiDAR/Geospatial Data Analysis

GAs must be admitted to an appropriate PhD or MS program at UH-Manoa. Comfort in coding in Python, R, Matlab or similar environment is required. Interested candidates should directly contact Dr. Roger Chen (rbchen@hawaii.edu) or Xiazhi Zhang (xiazhi@hawaii.edu) at the contact information below, if they have any questions or concerns with the positions. If you need a timely response, please consider contacting Xiazhi Zhang in first place.

夏威夷大学马诺阿分校位于美国夏威夷州首府檀香山，目前该校智慧城市和交通研究组正在招聘2名科研助理。该研究组致力于发展基于数据驱动的决策工具，观察、分析、预测城市交通系统，以及关注人类和建造环境的维度和行为。


研究助理的主要工作是开发利用新数据类型的方法，包括人类运动轨迹， LiDAR3D点云数据，移动应用程序收集的被动活动和交通数据等。新开发的方法将用于基础设施设计，包括市政和城市街道和交叉口设计指南。

研究助理将会参与以下两个项目：
A）行人的交通流的建模和分析
B）利用深度学习和LiDAR 3D 点云数据来进行道路设计

以下技能为加分项：
A）计量经济学
B）OR优化
C）深度学习
D）GIS/LiDAR/空间地理数据分析

研究助理必须同时申请夏威夷大学合适的研究生或者博士生项目。熟练掌握Python, R, Matlab 等相关编程技能。如有兴趣，请联系 Dr. Roger Chen (rbchen@hawaii.edu) or Xiazhi Zhang (xiazhi@hawaii.edu)。如需尽快得到回复，请先联系Xiazhi Zhang (xiazhi@hawaii.edu)。
