Yang Kaidi is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the National University of Singapore (NUS), affiliated with the Institute of Operations Research and Analytics (IORA) within NUS’s Smart Nation Research Cluster. Their research focuses on intelligent transportation systems, traffic control, shared mobility, and machine learning applications in mobility. Key interests include connected and automated vehicles, privacy-preserving data sharing, and reinforcement learning for traffic optimization. Research highlights include developing parameter privacy-preserving strategies for mixed-autonomy platoons, enhancing safety in autonomous driving via transformer-based trajectory prediction, and optimizing traffic signal timing using connected vehicle data. Their work bridges theoretical control systems with practical urban mobility challenges, addressing issues like ridesourcing-public transit integration, modular transit service operations, and weaving section management in mixed traffic environments. Recent publications emphasize real-time control frameworks, cooperative safety mechanisms, and data-driven solutions for urban and highway systems. Yang’s interdisciplinary approach integrates robotics, optimization, and cybersecurity to advance smart transportation infrastructure. Their contributions are particularly notable in privacy-preserving techniques for traffic state estimation and federated learning applications. While no specific awards or grants are listed, their research aligns with Singapore’s Smart Nation initiatives through IORA’s strategic focus areas. Yang’s work has implications for future traffic management systems, autonomous vehicle coordination, and sustainable urban mobility solutions.
