Simulated stable matching for urban hospitals and residential communities

Published in Applied Economics Letters, 2025

This brief research is the discussion of our last paper in Applied Economics, finding that some super pairs are consistently matched regardless of trade-offs after several rounds of stable matchings.

Introduction of my Three Papers on Spatial Matching

Published:

I delivered a 45-minute presentation to the new graduate students in the course Research Methods for Planning and Urban Studies, instructed by Prof. Guoqiang Shen. During my talk, I introduced my three published and forthcoming journal articles on the topic of spatial matching, focusing on key aspects such as identifying research problems, conducting methodological research, and navigating the publication process.
