Explore our past workshops, tutorials, and publications, along with ongoing initiatives advancing open science and reproducibility in transportation research.
Future June 2026
We will organize a workshop at the IEEE IV Symposium 2026 in Michigan, June 22, 2026, titled “Trustworthy and Open Science for Intelligent Vehicles: Datasets, Benchmarks, and Testbeds.”
Stay tuned for the detailed schedule.
Ongoing Sep 2024
We are guest-editing a topical collection on “Reproducible Research in Transportation” for European Transport Research Review (ETRR).
Submit your work on reproducible practices, tools, and case studies in transportation.
Past Sep 2025
Our half-day tutorial “Reproducibility in Transportation Research 2.0 – Reproducible Manuscripts” was successfully held at ITSC 2025.
Brought together researchers for hands-on training in reproducible workflows and best practices in preparing the manuscripts.
Past Sep 2025
Dr. Michail Makridis presented work on “Reproducibility in transportation research: First insights from transport simulation studies” at ENTPE in Lyon, France.
Open access paper now available with insights on reproducibility in simulation studies.
Past May 2025
We organized a tutorial with CPS Virtual Organization (CPS-VO) on “Going Public with Your CPS Code and Data” at CPS-IoT Week 2025.
Equipped researchers with practical tools for sharing work effectively with the broader community.
Past Apr 2025
Ruth Lu (undergraduate student, MIT) presented our work using Large Language Models (LLMs) to automatcially evalaute data and code availability in transportation research.
Highlighted innovative uses of AI tools in evaluating open science practices in Transportation community.
Past Sep 2024
We hosted a hands-on tutorial on Reproducibility in Transportation Research at ITSC 2024. It was widely praised by attendees, with participants calling it the most useful session of the conference and recommending it for group-wide study.
All tutorial materials from ITSC 2024 are now freely available online, including slides, code examples, and participant resources.
Past Jan 2024
We organized a workshop at the TRB 2024 Annual Meeting sponsored by eight committees.
Brought together researchers and practitioners to advance reproducible research practices across transportation domains.
Past Jan 2023
We organized a Call for Papers “Towards Reproducible Transportation Research” at TRB 2023, sponsored by ACP50: Traffic Flow Theory and Characteristics (primary sponsoring committee) and AEP40: Transportation Network Modeling Committee.
