This $525,009 five-year project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research at the University of Southern California (USC) to model service interactions at a micro-level, rather than using traditional system-level models. The research aims to capture details previously overlooked, in order to address operational problems in the service sector and improve managerial decision making without requiring additional resources. The project...
This $201,299 National Science Foundation project grant supports research to develop novel predictive models of epidemic spread dynamics and validate those models using COVID-19 data. The funding will be used to conduct fundamental research advancing the scientific understanding of how uncertainties in human behavior and pathogen characteristics influence spatial and temporal stochastic epidemic dynamics. Specific aims of the research include developing new predictive dynamic models based on...
This $423,340 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at the University of Southern California to develop statistical models for selecting optimal populations. The goal is to establish reliable decision-making rules for determining which of multiple approaches or populations provides the best solution to a given problem. The three-year award under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will investigate methods for identifying the population with the largest mean based on...
