I am a PhD student at Urban Analysis Lab, Department of Architecture, National University of Singapore, where my PhD supervisor is Prof. Filip Biljecki. I hold MSc in Space Syntax from University College London and Bachelor of Architecture from Chongqing University. In addition, I am a computer science master’s student at the School of Engineering and Applied Science, University of Pennsylvania.
My research explores the integration of new computational technologies, including Computer Science and GIScience, with the study of the built environment. I aim to advance knowledge in four key areas:
- Urban Intelligence Investigating the integrated development of urban intelligence through emerging technologies, including the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI).
- Urban Data Utilizing multi-source urban data to analyze and address complex urban challenges, to uncover insights into the interactions between the built environment and urban dynamics.
- Urban Comfort Focusing on subjective, human-centered perceptions of comfort in urban spaces, to evaluate and enhance the sensory and experiential dimensions of urban environments.
- Architectural Systems Conducting micro-scale investigations into architectural systems, including spatial configurations, building information systems, and sustainable green building solutions.
