Rapid growth in electric-vehicle (EV) charging demand is placing increasing stress on distribution power networks (DPNs), whose hosting capacity is often limited and spatially uneven. Beyond demonstra…
Perimeter control is an effective urban traffic management strategy that regulates inflow to congested urban regions using aggregate network dynamics. While existing approaches primarily optimize syst…
This paper extends the Acemoglu-Restrepo task exposure framework to address the labor market effects of agentic artificial intelligence systems: autonomous AI agents capable of completing entire occup…
Credit-based congestion pricing (CBCP) and discount-based congestion pricing (DBCP), which respectively allot travel credits and toll discounts to subsidize low-income users' access to tolled roads, h…
With the global energy transition and the rapid penetration of electric vehicles (EVs), the widening travel cost gap between EVs and gasoline vehicles (GVs) increasingly affects commuters' route choic…
The contribution describes a pedestrian navigation approach designed to improve localization accuracy in urban environments where GNSS performance is degraded, a problem that is especially critical fo…
The widespread adoption of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) holds promise for mitigating emission-related health impacts, particularly for low-income communities disproportionately affected by exposur…
Urban mobility systems are transitioning toward electric, on-demand services, creating operational challenges for fleet management under energy and service-quality constraints. The Electric Dial-a-Rid…
Reliable testing of autonomous driving systems requires simulation environments that combine large-scale traffic modeling with realistic 3D perception and terrain. Existing tools rarely capture real-w…
Urban Air mobility has gained momentum with recent advancements in the electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) vehicles, offering faster point-to-point air taxi services that could help relieve…
We present VEGA, a vehicle-adaptive energy-aware routing system for electric vehicles (EVs) that integrates physics-informed parameter estimation with RL-based charge-aware path planning. VEGA consist…
Accurate visual localization in dense urban environments poses a fundamental task in photogrammetry, geospatial information science, and robotics. While imagery is a low-cost and widely accessible sen…
The electrification and automation of mobility are reshaping how cities operate on-demand transport systems. Managing Electric Autonomous Mobility-on-Demand (EAMoD) fleets effectively requires coordin…
Deployed SAE level 4+ Automated Driving Systems (ADS) without a human driver are currently operational ride-hailing fleets on surface streets in the United States. This current use case and future app…
Decarbonizing regional and long-haul freight faces challenges due to the limitations of battery-electric vehicles and infrastructure. Hydrogen fuel cell medium- and heavy-duty vehicles (MHDVs) present…
Humanoid robots can, in principle, use their legs to go almost anywhere. Developing controllers capable of traversing diverse terrains, however, remains a considerable challenge. Classical controllers…
A robotaxi dragged a pedestrian 20 feet down a San Francisco street on the evening of October 2, 2023, coming to rest with its rear wheel on that woman's legs. The mishap was complex, involving a firs…
A control scheme for the multi-gated perimeter traffic flow control problem of cities is presented. The proposed scheme determines feasible and optimally distributed input flows for the various gates …
We cast real-world humanoid control as a next token prediction problem, akin to predicting the next word in language. Our model is a causal transformer trained via autoregressive prediction of sensori…
An October 2023 crash between a GM Cruise robotaxi and a pedestrian in San Francisco resulted not only in a severe injury, but also dramatic upheaval at that company that will likely have lasting effe…
