3. Purpose and Contents of the Course:This course focuses on learning some of methodologies to analyze transportations and regions, which
are sometimes vulnerable to natural hazards. In addition to it, getting used to the essence of the basic
way of theoretical and mathematical thinking in planning is another main target. For fulfilling thesepurposes, we choose four topics: 1) Traffic flow modelling, 2) Logistics management and analysis, 3)
Statistics and Machine Learning, 4) Travel behavior modelling.
