effectiveness of message themes (e.g., pro-sociality vs. system efficiency), and deploying tailored persuasive techniques optimized for varied user profiles.

Responsibilities will include:

• Interdisciplinary collaboration: Work closely with faculty from computer science, transportation engineering, operations research, and psychology on integrative research related to microtransit systems.
• AI algorithms and engineering: Design and implement advanced methods to learn rider preferences and effective persuasive approaches to promote cooperation. Build robust pipelines for simulation and integration with a user interface and other app components.
• User studies: Develop an experimental platform and run user studies to test developed algorithms and analyze impacts.
• Conference presentations and journal publications: Lead or contribute to conference and journal papers for top venues.
