Yanbing Wang

I will be joining Arizona State University as a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment (SSEBE) starting Spring 2025!

My lab has openings for self-driven and passionate PhD/MS students. If you are interested in working with me, please send me your CV and research statement.

I am currently a post-doctoral researcher in the Transportation and Power Systems (TAPS) division at Argonne National Laboratory. I earned my Ph.D. from the Institute for Software Integrated Systems at Vanderbilt University in September 2023 under the guidance of Professor Dan Work, where I also served as a Research Engineer. I am a five-time recipient of the prestigious Dwight D. Eisenhower Transportation Fellowship awarded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and was honored as the Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Rising Star by the University of Virginia Link Lab in 2023. I held research internship positions at Toyota Infotech Labs and Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories (MERL), and was a visiting researcher at the Institute for Pure & Applied Mathematics (IPAM) at UCLA. My research focuses on advancing transportation CPS by developing computationally-efficient tools for generating and analyzing large-scale empirical data. My work aims to revolutionize traffic monitoring and control for the next generation of transportation systems.
