Mingyi He studies how people move through cities, using data on commuting, travel flows, and urban form to understand patterns of human mobility. The work often uses machine learning and mathematical modeling (such as gravity models, which predict travel between locations based on factors like distance and population) to analyze how socioeconomic factors and city shape affect travel behavior and neighborhood perception.
