Information Sciences Institute
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Ruolin Li, USC
Talk Title: Harnessing Autonomous Vehicles for Smarter Traffic Management
Series: AI Seminar
Abstract: Meeting hosts only admit on-line guests that they know to the Zoom meeting. Hence, you’re highly encouraged to use your USC account to sign into Zoom. If you’re an outside visitor, please inform us at (nlg-seminar-host(at)isi.edu) to make us aware of your attendance so we can admit you. Specify if you will attend remotely or in person at least one business day prior to the event. Provide your: full name, job title and professional affiliation and arrive at least 10 minutes before the seminar begins. If you do not have access to the 10th Floor for in-person attendance, please check in at the main reception desk to check in as a visitor and someone will escort you to the conference room location. You are required to register for this event. https://usc.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_koeiKjLnTveQ06NAHEkIwA https://usc.zoom.us/j/93611391909?pwd=995rTEdKQwrDjObtL3amUojQXGYISL.1 Meeting ID: 936 1139 1909 Passcode: 172658
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) offer new opportunities to improve traffic flow, enhance system-wide coordination, and maximize societal benefits through their increased controllability and adaptability. However, their effective integration into transportation systems requires a comprehensive understanding of AV-human interactions and the development of strategic control mechanisms to prevent potential negative consequences, such as the exploitation of AVs’ cooperative behaviors by selfish drivers.
This talk examines a series of representative transportation scenarios—highway on-ramps, vehicle routing in networks, and toll lane usage—to explore how AVs can be leveraged to improve traffic efficiency and overall system performance. The presentation introduces innovative models that capture the complex interplay between human-driven and autonomous vehicles and demonstrates control strategies that optimize AVs' potential while mitigating the risks of adverse exploitation. The discussion highlights the importance of well-designed AV deployment and control policies to ensure that autonomous mobility serves broader societal interests.
Biography: Ruolin Li is a Gabilan Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Southern California. Her research focuses on the active control and management of autonomous vehicles in mixed-autonomy environments, leveraging game theory, multi-agent systems, and optimization to enhance the societal benefits of intelligent transportation systems. She explores how AVs can be strategically integrated to foster more adaptive and cooperative mobility networks.
Prior to joining USC, Ruolin was a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University. She earned her Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in Mechanical Engineering from UC Berkeley in 2023 and 2018, respectively. She is recognized as a Rising Star in Civil and Environmental Engineering by MIT and a Rising Star in Mechanical Engineering by Stanford.

CA DREAMS - Technical Seminar Series
Fri, May 02, 2025 @ 12:00 PM - 01:00 PM
Information Sciences Institute
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Dr. Jonathan Hacker, Teledyne Scientific Company
Talk Title: Teledyne Scientific 3DHI SLIC Foundry Process
Series: CA DREAMS - Technical Seminar Series
Abstract: Teledyne Scientific offers an innovative 3D-Heterogenous Integration (3D-HI) Packaging Technology as a foundry process though the CA DREAMS hub. The SMART Laminated Interposer with CMOS (SLIC) technology enables a new generation of transceiver arrays that integrate all required functionality from rf beamforming RFIC electronics to III-V front-end MMICs, low-loss transmission lines, dc power distribution, and aperture feeds into a compact, rugged, micromachined three-dimensional structure. Teledyne’s SLIC 3DHI process is particularly suitable for the fabrication of low-cost batch fabricated millimeter-wave phased arrays and has been used to demonstrate phased arrays operating at 44, 94, and 220 GHz.
Biography: Jonathan Hacker is a department head at Teledyne Scientific Company, involved in research and development efforts in low-cost batch-fabricated phased-array sensors using 3DHI, Indium phosphide millimeter-wave monolithic microwave integrated circuits, Charge-Enhanced GaN MMICs, and Vanadium Dioxide ultra-low loss RF switches. He received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at Caltech in 1994. Hacker is a Fellow of the IEEE.
