Xin is a postdoctoral researcher at the Charles University Environment Centre. His research focuses on modeling individual decision-making to inform policy, particularly in the fields of transportation and the environment. His current interests include autonomous vehicle ridesharing services and the spatially explicit non-use values of biodiversity.
Methodologically, he specializes in discrete choice modeling that integrates behavioral insights with advanced statistics and high-performance computing, delivering analyses that support policy formulation and implementation. He addresses uncertainty through risk-sensitive choice structures and incorporates spatial components to represent geographic heterogeneity.
Xin earned his PhD from Hiroshima University in Japan. He is currently part of the Plural Valuation for Just Biodiversity Policy (SPValues) project, funded through the PRIMUS scheme.
