Interests

My research interests are the intersection of IoT, machine learning, and digital twins for accelerated decision-making based on anticipatory outcomes in the context of complex systems such as smart cities, intelligent transportation, and networks. The research approach is led by social science, shaped by domain experts, and enabled by innovative technology and has driven the foundation of the new laboratory entitled "Digital Twins for Sustainable Development Goals" (https://www.qmul.ac.uk/dtsdg/)
