Quant

The QUANT group provides the bridge between computer algorithms and Civil Engineering Systems. The group focuses on modelling traffic and environmental systems utilising physical models combining them with statistical models using real data. The key areas of research include:

  • Traffic and emission models
  • Statistical estimation, prediction & control
  • Time-Series Analysis, Bayesian Statistics, Machine Learning Models
  • Sensor Design & Fusion
  • Data Quality & Error Theory
  • Health, Economic & Environmental Impacts & Policy Instruments

Research Group Lead

Dr Bidisha Ghosh is the Chair of the Irish Transport Research Network (ITRN) and an Associate Professor in the School of Engineering at Trinity College Dublin. She leads the research group, QUANT. She is an expert of natural system behaviour prediction using statistical methods, time-series modelling, artificial intelligence algorithms, sustainable transportation and health impact assessment of active travel. She has published over 120 peer-reviewed journal and conference articles. She is the PI of several national and European research projects and has received €1.5 million in research funding.
