The Division of Decision and Control Systems is currently looking for a doctoral student with a strong background and interest in machine learning, mathematics, and traffic models. The successful candidate will join a world-renowned team on an interdisciplinary project to advance machine learning models for tackling complex traffic problems. We are pioneers in traffic estimation using physics-informed machine learning and we ambition to leverage this technique for enhancing traffic flow forecasting, optimizing vehicle routing and scheduling, and improving last-mile delivery in real-world traffic scenarios.
