About Me

Greetings! I am Keshu Wu, a researcher working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, cyber-physical systems, and intelligent transportation. My research focuses on developing interactive and trustworthy intelligent systems that perceive, reason, and make decisions in complex physical environments. These systems aim to enable safe and coordinated interactions among humans, infrastructure, and autonomous agents, supporting the next generation of intelligent mobility and infrastructure systems.

My research specifically involves:

1) Connected and Automated Mobility Intelligence — modeling interactions among vehicles, infrastructure, and humans, and developing AI methods for safe motion prediction, planning, and control within connected vehicle–road–cloud and V2X systems.
2) Digital Twin and Cyber-Physical Systems — building end-to-end digital twin pipelines that integrate data, simulation, and system optimization, while leveraging generative AI and LLM-based reasoning to synthesize scenarios and agent behaviors.
3) Spatiotemporal AI for Networked Systems — developing methods for spatiotemporal reconstruction, forecasting, and scalable spatial–temporal network analysis to enable data fusion and system understanding across large-scale dynamic networks.

My theoretical foundation draws on machine learning, generative AI, network science, and computational optimization, integrated with transportation engineering and cyber-physical systems, with the goal of improving transportation safety, efficiency, and everyday human mobility.
