Serio Agriesti is an assistant professor in AI-based transport modelling. His research activities focus on machine learning in traffic simulations, on improving the performance of meta-models in disrupted mobility scenarios and on designing large-scale transport models. Before working at the University of Twente, he has been a postdoctoral researcher at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). He has been involved in multiple European research projects and is part of the EIT Urban Mobility Doctoral Training Network. Serio received the Ph.D. degree from Aalto University, his Doctoral thesis focused on agent-based modeling, performance evaluation, and connected and automated driving. He was a research fellow with the Politecnico di Milano, where he focused on the impact assessment of innovative transport systems, such as connected and automated vehicles and truck platooning.
