Dr. Yanbing Wang is a tenure-track Assistant Professor at Arizona State University's School of Sustainable Engineering and the Built Environment (SSEBE), where she leads applied research initiatives with government and industry partners on intelligent transportation systems and mobility analytics. Before joining ASU in 2025, she conducted postdoctoral research at Argonne National Laboratory's Transportation and Power Systems division and earned her PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Vanderbilt University in 2023.
- PhD, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Vanderbilt University (2023)
- BS, Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2018)
Dr. Wang specializes in advancing transportation cyber-physical systems (CPS) through computationally-efficient tools for large-scale empirical data generation and analysis. Her work bridges theory and practice via real-world experimentation with Tennessee's I-24 MOTION testbed and collaboration with public agencies. Key research themes include connected vehicle dynamics, adaptive cruise control personalization, and real-time traffic monitoring frameworks.
Her 15 most recent publications (2024-2022) demonstrate interdisciplinary trends spanning transportation engineering, computer vision, control theory, and environmental data science. Articles focus on trajectory reconstruction, multi-object tracking algorithms, digital twin infrastructure, and machine learning applications for traffic stability, with notable emphasis on heterogeneous traffic estimation, parameter calibration, and 3D vehicle tracking benchmarks.

Dr. Wang advises MS students like Raswanth Prasath, whose work on multi-object tracking was spotlighted at ASU's Graduate Poster Symposium. Her research has been supported by Department of Energy funding at Argonne and a USDOT grant through the Eisenhower Fellowship. She collaborates with institutions including Toyota InfoTech Labs, Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, and UCLA's IPAM, while leading projects like the I-24 MOTION data infrastructure and CIRCLES congestion reduction initiative.
