Yuanyuan Tian
Yuanyuan’s research concentrates on integrating the Construction Motion Data Library (CML) and developing deep learning algorithms to investigate efficient approaches for recognizing and managing construction working activities.
Hejun Xu
Hejun’s research focuses on the digitization of building construction. He employs building information models in conjunction with sensing technologies to produce digital twin models of buildings and urban environments.
Rui Ma
Rui’s main research areas include joint simulation and modeling of building energy consumption, urban microclimate and energy management at the city scale, and urban semantic modeling and analysis.
Qi Li
Qi currently engaged in research on urban microclimate assessment, building form analysis, and sustainable development of energy-efficient and low-carbon buildings.
