Dr. Wang is a research faculty at the Institute of Transportation Studies (ITS), UC Berkeley, US. Her focus is on deep learning algorithms and applications for autonomous vehicles. As a team leader of the machine learning group, she leads projects on learning human-like driving behaviors, decision-making strategies, intention prediction, and motion planning, based on deep learning methods such as Imitation Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Inverse Reinforcement Learning, Generative Adversarial Learning, Meta-Learning, Semi-supervised learning, etc. She also collaborates with industries on projects such as intelligent traffic control and advanced vehicular technology assessment. Some other prior work included cooperative collision warning system, big data analysis on vehicle driving patterns, crash data analysis, road safety evaluation, etc.
