XARA: A Multimodal Agentic System for eXtended Reality Experiment Generation
Tareq Alsaleh, Thomas Zhao, Luke Guardino +3
Controlled experiments are essential for advancing transportation research, yet designing eXtended Reality (XR) environments for behavioural studies remains technically demanding a…
Mobility Behaviour of Immigrants in Canada: Analyzing Mode Choice Using GPS Panel Data and Mixed Logit Models
Tareq Alsaleh, Bilal Farooq, Zachary Patterson
We examine these relationships using a panel dataset of more than 80,000 trip observations from 100 participants through a custom-built mobile application. A joint revealed prefere…
Exclusive and Shared Electric Flying Taxis: Evidence on Modal Shares, Stated Reasons, and Modal Shifts
Nael Alsaleh, Tareq Alsaleh, Fayez Moutassem +2
This study examines travelers' preferences for electric flying taxi services in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) under varying travel conditions and service configurations. A stated…
Traffic Collisions: Temporal Patterns and Severity-Weighted Hotspot Analysis
Nael Alsaleh, Noura Falis, Tareq Alsaleh +1
Understanding traffic collision patterns is of high importance for effective road safety planning in fast-growing urban environments. This study examines the temporal and spatial p…
Towards Locally Deployable Fine-Tuned Causal Large Language Models for Mode Choice Behaviour
Tareq Alsaleh, Bilal Farooq
This study investigates the adoption of open-access, locally deployable causal large language models (LLMs) for travel mode choice prediction and introduces LiTransMC, the first fi…
Simulation Models for Sustainable, Resilient, and Optimized Global Electric Vehicles Supply Chain
Tareq Alsaleh, Bilal Farooq
While the transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is essential for decarbonizing the transportation system, the production and distribution of EVs entail substantial carbon costs. To…
