How does urban “metabolism”—the emergence, growth, and decline of places—occur, and through what mechanisms? Is it possible to manage these processes?
Based on these questions, I am currently conducting research to elucidate the mechanisms of urban formation from three perspectives: (1) evaluating the characteristics of established areas, (2) understanding the decision-making processes of urban actors underlying area formation, and (3) developing policy and planning interventions to encourage the activities of urban actors that generate positive externalities in cities.
Methodologically, I draw on spatial and mobility data, POI and social media data, and quantitative approaches such as causal inference, agent-based modeling, and machine learning.
