Jae's research revolves around understanding the high dimensional spatial data processing related to solar energy forecasting using machine learning and geographic information systems. In addition, he also investigates to develop the automatic BIM model of road using geometric neural network. 

Nikhil's research interests focus on development of high-performance machine learning models for multi-modal image analysis, domain adaptation, active learning and unsupervised learning with applications in geospatial AI, remote sensing, climate change and disaster response.

Hayoung is investigating research topics related to community energy modeling and generative AI for creating sustainable and equitable built environments.

BIM and GIS Integration for Sustainable Communities

My research focuses on hazard precursor detections using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and building information modeling (BIM). My goal is to develop a cost-efficient, user-friendly, and highly accurate method using video surveillance and AI to reduce manual and laborious tasks.

Mina studied the application of technology to reduce the time and cost of water damage restoration projects after disasters. To recover and restore buildings with water damage, a systematic restoration strategy with an automatic moisture mapping process is proposed using a thermal 3D laser scanner, BIM-GIS, and IoT.  (Co-advising with Dr. Randy R.

Annique's research focuses on digital twin construction project and program management. She is currently working on detection of hazard precursors to implement proactive safety management on construction sites. In the future, with the combination of BIM and GIS, she will further explore digital-twining human and environment responsive and interactive construction workplaces.
