Transportation Data Scientist & ADAS Consultant | PhD | Road Safety, Machine Learning, Python, GIS & Statistics

Profile Summary

I am a PhD-qualified Transportation Engineer and Postdoctoral Researcher specializing in transportation data analytics, road safety, Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), automated mobility, and Operational Design Domain (ODD) assessment. My work combines transportation engineering with data science and machine learning to solve problems involving vehicle, road, traffic, environmental, and human-behavior data. I have experience developing end-to-end analytical workflows for large-scale real-world datasets, including data acquisition, cleaning, synchronization, integration, feature engineering, statistical analysis, predictive modeling, visualization, validation, and interpretation. My research has involved multimodal datasets integrating Mobileye ADAS data, GNSS/INS, GIS and digital-map information, road-infrastructure measurements, environmental conditions, and human-perception data. I have developed models for ADAS performance assessment, lane-marking quality classification, road-infrastructure evaluation, driver-behavior analysis, and ODD characterization under different road, weather, traffic, and lighting conditions. My methodological expertise includes statistical modeling, machine learning, explainable AI, time-series analysis, predictive analytics, data fusion, GIS-based analysis, and experimental research design. I primarily work with Python (Pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, scikit-learn), MATLAB/Simulink, R, Jupyter, and GIS-based analytical workflows. In addition to data analysis and modeling, I can support clients with scientific and technical research, research methodology, literature reviews, technical reports, scientific writing and editing, peer-review support, and interpretation of complex analytical results. I have international research experience, including work at TU Delft's Traffic and Transportation Safety Lab, and I have authored peer-reviewed publications and served as a reviewer for several international transportation and engineering journals and conferences. I am particularly interested in consulting and research projects involving transportation and mobility data, road safety, ADAS and automated driving, intelligent transportation systems, predictive modeling, machine learning, statistical analysis, GIS, and data-driven engineering problems.
