Mingjia He

I’m a doctoral student at the Institute of Dynamic Systems and Control (IDSC) at ETH Zürich, under the supervision of Prof. Emilio Frazzoli (ETH) and Prof. Gioele Zardini (MIT). My research explores strategic interactions in multi-agent autonomous systems, with the goal of developing control strategies and cooperative mechanisms that redefine what is possible in future mobility.

I am passionate about leveraging advances in game theory and optimization techniques to build more intelligent, efficient, and resilient mobility systems. The applications of my work span diverse mobility systems, including railway systems, urban multi-modal transit networks, and autonomous on-demand mobility services.
