We had an invited talk:
- Guest speaker: Dr. Rojee Pradhananga (Tribhuvan Univ.)
- Title: Public Transportation in Kathmandu Valley: An Evaluation of Accessibility for Work, Education and Health Trips
Thank you so much for visiting Hiroshima and share your knowledge with us.
We held the 8th EASTS-Japan–JICA Joint Seminar on October 9, 2026.
Thank you very much to all the speakers and participants for their valuable contributions. We hope this seminar will lead to further collaboration in the future!
Reem presented our work on missing-by-design. We seek an optimal survey design that reduces uncertainty in model estimates while minimizing respondent burden.
Azwan presented the work he did in his master thesis at hEART2026 held in Paris. Proposing efficient computational framework for activity-based DDCM, which is essential to properly embed heterogeneous constraints that each of us has
Azwan also presented the results of initial trial to link activity-based DDCM with MATSim at MATSim user meeting

4th: Hiroshima University Team A
A fresh approach incorporating language into the model was highly praised.

🥇 1st: Hiroshima University Team B Top overall—and also a Kasumi Award winner. Congratulations!
We presented two studies at ICMC: an efficient computational framework for an activity-based DDCM (Azwan, @peminumyakult), and a burden-aware adaptive travel survey (Reem, @ReemOlabi24043).
Four students in our lab (Reem @ReemOlabi24043, Azwan @peminumyakult , Hafi @hvyyan, and Habibie) presented their research outputs at APTE 2026 in Jeju, South Korea!

Our new paper on where and when ride-hailing drivers wait, and what it means for urban planning and driver policy in Indonesia. Working on this together with Bu @safiramaya and Chikaraishi Sensei @ChikaraLab . Thank you so much for your guidance always!

New publication alert!
Our new paper. Part of Blessy Xavier's PhD work.
We use 80 million trip records collected from AFC gates in Delhi Metro to develop a novel crowding index that identifies how different destination stations contribute to link-level crowding.

Umm, no Japanese universities/organizations…
NeurIPS 2025's top 50 paper contributors show China and the US neck-and-neck.
In the US, corporate labs—Google DeepMind, Meta, Microsoft—now rival top schools like Stanford, CMU, MIT, showing a major shift to industry-led AI research.
China’s leaders remain academic: Tsinghua, CAS, Peking, SJTU, HKUST. Singapore (NUS, NTU), Korea (KAIST), UAE (MBZUAI), and Canada (Mila) hold strong.
Europe trails, with only Oxford, EPFL, ETH Zurich, and TUM from the EU-27 making the list.

On Thursday December 11, we will be holding a Japan-TUM Transportation Research Seminar, so if you happen to be in Munich check it out (if not, it will also be available on Zoom). @ChikaraLab @actscape

あまりにも勿体無いので勝手に宣伝を。『計量経済学』（日本評論社）を書かれた神戸大の末石先生が、ミクロ計量分析の講義スライド14点を公開されています。実務データ分析に関わる方々なら必読の資料ばかりです
