Dr. Lili Du, Nelms Institute affiliate faculty and associate professor in the Department of Civil and Coastal Engineering, recently received approval to create and co-lead the Artificial Intelligence Task Committee under the Emerging Technologies Council of Transportation & Development Institute (T&DI) from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE).

This committee will serve as a forum for ideas and knowledge exchange among researchers, engineers, and operators from academia, industry, and government with interests in developing and promoting artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and their applications in transportation. Additionally, the committee will serve as a platform for consolidating on-going efforts in academia, industry, and government to form a collective voice and make significant impacts on the development of AI in transportation from the perspectives of both scientific and technological innovations. Finally, it will serve as a connector for bridging strengths in academia, industry, and government to promote AI technology transformation, regulation development, and deployment in transportation. If you are interested in joining the committee please contact Dr. Du.
