Description
With the quickly growing quantity and variety of transportation data, Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are revolutionizing transportation research from system management to automated vehicle and infrastructure control. Emerging AI technologies combined with other analytical methods will lead to improved scientific understandings, transformative methods, and innovative, proactive management solutions for urban transportation infrastructure systems (UTIS). To explore the frontiers of AI-empowered methods, solutions, best practices, and workforce development for addressing urban transportation challenges, we held a two-phase workshop on June 4-5, 2022, in Seattle, WA, and on December 15, 2022, in Gainesville, FL, respectively. The workshop gathered researchers from relevant disciplines, industry experts, policymakers, educators, and workforce developers, fostering a collaborative environment for comprehensive discussions and exchanges. This presentation will share key findings of the workshop, including research opportunities, application-ready technologies, limitations, emerging implementation, workforce development, and education needs, to further stimulate transformative research in pertinent communities.
