Jinyong’s research examines human trust and performance in AI-assisted decision-making under uncertainty\, with healthcare as a primary application. In this seminar\, Jinyong will present collaborative work with pharmacists\, examining how communicating AI uncertainty information influences trust and performance in medication verification. Expanding this applied research\, Jinyong developed a theoretical human-AI error categorization framework that moves beyond binary decision frameworks to capture complex\, multi-class AI error patterns. Together\, these studies advance both the theoretical understanding and practical guidance for designing trustworthy\, human-centered AI systems.\n\nPresenter Bio:\nJinyong Kim is a PhD Candidate in Industrial and Operations Engineering (IOE) at the University of Michigan\, advised by Dr. Jessie Yang. His research is centered on human trust and performance in AI-assisted decision-making\, with a primary application in healthcare. He aims to extend this agenda to guide the design of AI that supports safe decision-making. Jinyong contributes to the IOE community through service on the Graduate Application Mentoring Program (GAMP) planning committee\, the IOE Community Engagement committee\, and the IOE Student Leadership Board.

This talk will provide an overview of our ongoing research quantifying the environmental and operational implications of vehicle electrification across different segments. We examine how electric passenger cars\, delivery vans\, and transit buses differ in their energy use\, emissions\, and cost trajectories using a combination of data-driven modeling\, optimization\, and system analysis. Example studies I will introduce in this talk include regional life cycle emissions assessment for passenger cars\, real-world energy consumption prediction for delivery fleets\, and transition planning for clean bus networks using a multi-stage stochastic optimization model . Together\, these studies demonstrate how analytical and data-driven methods can help us investigate vehicle performance\, fleet operations\, and system-level emissions outcomes\, providing actionable insights.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Dr. Tuğçe Yüksel is an Assistant Professor in Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences at Sabancı University\, Istanbul\, Turkey.

We present our methodology which is developed to extract 3D vehicle kinematic information from roadside cameras using deep learning. Ground truth data are collected with the help of uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) in terms of top view bounding boxes\, providing vehicle position\, size\, orientation\, and velocity information with high precision. These can be converted to roadside view bounding boxes using homography transformation. The ground truth data and the roadside view images are used to train a modified YOLO neural network\, and thus\, to learn the homography transformation matrix. The output of the neural network is high-precision vehicle kinematic information which can be visualized in both the top view and the roadside view. Once the neural network is trained\, only the roadside cameras are needed to extract the kinematic information.\n\nMore on this research: https://ccat.umtri.umich.edu/research/u-m/generating-high-accuracy-transportation-datasets-with-unmanned-aerial-vehicles/\n---\nAbout the speaker: Gabor Orosz received an MSc degree in Engineering Physics from the Budapest University of Technology\, Hungary\, in 2002\, and a PhD degree in Engineering Mathematics from the University of Bristol\, UK\, in 2006.
