Dr. Liu Liu
Department of Urban Planning, Tongji University | Associate professor| Research Supervisor
Welcome to my academic homepage.
For the past five years, I have been working on Digital Twin City, RSSI–based crowd analytics, and AI for Urban Planning. My recent research focuses on the sensing, modeling, and spatial analysis of urban environments and dynamics, leading to the development of software applications, patents, and related publications. So far, I have published more than 30 academic papers and authored an English monograph. As the first inventor, I hold several granted national invention patents.
As the Principal Investigator, I am conducting several projects including: Integrated Technology for ‘Sensing – Simulation – Planning Response’ of Cultural Heritage Risk, Performance Evaluation and Optimization Method of Community Renewal Planning Supported by AI and Digital Twin, etc.
I am always open to collaboration with scholars who share similar research interests, and I also welcome prospective graduate students interested in smart cities and intelligent urban planning to reach out about opportunities to join my group.
