Academic Direction & Collaboration
Fall 2027
Building a research-and-teaching trajectory in Human-Centered AI for Intelligent Transportation Systems, with a focus on Intelligent Mobility and spanning intelligent vehicles, multimodal perception, human-aware assistance, trustworthy AI, and deployable systems. Current interests include human and scene understanding, adaptive decision support, robustness and interpretability, shared and automated driving, and edge AI for safety-critical mobility. I am interested in international research collaborations, joint publications, academic exchanges, and advanced research training.Contact: rubendfz2206@gmail.com
