  • Lecture at Auditorium Maximum

    03 Apr 2024

    πŸ—ž Complex social systems simulations – human behavior modeling, lecture on Friday at Auditorium Maximum
    • I will be talking about how challenging is introducing the human factor into models and simulations considering humans have their unpredictability and free will what makes simulations more complex. The main question is how do we incorporate these aspects into modeling. Together with the audience I will go on a journey through various examples, from road traffic to pedestrian traffic simulations, presenting how human decisions can shape social phenomena. Finally, I will show how to use artificial intelligence in simulations where people compete for limited resources with intelligent machines πŸ€–.
    See you there! Presentation

  • Faculty Day

    13 Mar 2024

    Young blood at the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science during the 16th edition of the Faculty Day! So many inspiring lectures, fruitful discussions and workshops including mine conducted together with ZoltΓ‘n Varga. Complex social systems simulation at the example of road traffic occured to be very vivid theme for all participants. Such brainstorming atmosphere urges us for further action. I am very proud I could be the part of this initiative. Let me take you there

  • Christmas Party

    12 Dec 2023

    Such a wonderful evening at #Krakow’s Kazimierz. Not only a Christmas Party, but also the first time when the complete team of #ERC #COeXISTENCE had a chance to meet and integrate with themselves as well as with β€˜older’ friends. πŸ‘ Ten brilliant minds, working now at Jagiellonian University to contribute towards future urban mobility. Great pride of you, wish all the best in the coming year!

  • Our results published in JoTG

    11 Dec 2023

    πŸ—ž When ride-pooling is attractive/efficient for all the parties involved (passengers, platforms/providers, city/environment/sustainability)? We examined half a year (1.5 million trip sample) from NYC, run 9 000 experiments with our π„π±πŒπ€π’ and report 6 KPIs to move beyond the well-known 𝐜𝐫𝐒𝐭𝐒𝐜𝐚π₯ 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐬 and better understand ride-pooling potential. See our results in Journal of Transport Geography with Olha Shulika, MichaΕ‚ Bujak and Farnoud Ghasemi.

    05 Sep 2023

    πŸ›« On our way to hEART Conference at ETH. This year, our team will present in Zurich: πŸ’£ Farnoud Ghasemi will show how we extend #MaaSSim and simulate Dynamics of the Ride-Sourcing Market: A Coevolutionary Model of Competition between Two-Sided Mobility Platforms - session D6 on Thursday. πŸ’£ MichaΕ‚ Bujak will show how we extend #ExMAS to be able to: Assessing expected ride-pooling performance with non-deterministic, heterogeneous travellers’ behaviour - session E2 on Wednesday. πŸ’£ Arkadiusz Drabicki wraps up his PhD to show his results on Willingness to wait with real-time crowding information in urban public transport – before vs. after COVID-19 pandemic (with Oded Cats ) - session A2 on Wednesday.
