I am seeking a few candidates to join my team as Postdoctal Fellows. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in Transport Engineering, Computer Science, Industrial Engineering, Urban Studies or related fields, with a strong track record in the following: refereed publications in transport, artificial intelligence, operations research, urban studies/planning; advanced skills in transport simulations, machine learning, and optimization; as well as experience in co-authoring and managing competitive research grants. Applicants should also have the ability to manage own academic research and meet defined milestones on time with an understanding of transportation simulations and optimizations.
The appointee will participate in a R&D project related to the development of simulation platforms and artificial-intelligence based algorithms for optimizing operations and management of taxi E-hailing services. The appointee is expected to have strong programming skills (Python, HTML and JavaScript) and good knowledge of optimization approaches and artificial intelligence, especially reinforcement learning models. The appointee is also expected to start new projects once new research funding is secured by the team. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend an interview.
Outstanding candidates are strongly encouraged to apply for the RGC Postdoctoral Fellowship Scheme (PDFS). Awardees of this scheme will receive an annual stipend of HK$406,550 per year for 3 years for the awardee’s basic salary as well as a conference and research-related travel allowance (of HK$12,920 per year inclusively).
Positions for visiting scholars are also available. If your research background fits my research interests, please send me your CV including your education qualifications, research experience, research interests, and list of publications.
I am looking for a few self-motivated Ph.D. students to join my research team.

Interested candidates can send their CV and transcripts to me at kejintao@hku.hk. Due to the large volume of emails, I apologize for not replying to individual inquires I have received.
A few full-time and part-time research assistants positions are available at my lab, starting from now until the position is filled up. In particular, strong candidates (e.g., top bachelor students from C9 universities) who are willing to apply for my PhD in the next year are encouraged to work in my lab as a Research Assistant for a couple of months before the PhD application. Interested candidates can send their CV to me at kejintao@hku.hk.
Senior year undergraduate and master students with outstanding academic records from around the world can choose to join my lab as a summer intern through the HKU summer Research Programme. Please see the details at https://gradsch.hku.hk/news_and_events/news_and_future_events/summer-research-programme-2024. Outstanding participants has an opportunity to get a fast-track offer of HKU-PS after the program. Interested candidates can send their CV and transcripts to me at kejintao@hku.hk.
