Welcome!
I am Ye Hong, currently pursuing a doctoral degree at ETH Zurich, supervised by Martin Raubal and Konrad Schindler. I work in the Mobility Information Engineering (MIE) Lab at the Chair of Geoinformation Engineering, ETH Zurich. Before starting the doctoral journey, I obtained my master’s degree in Geomatic from ETH Zurich and a bachelor’s degree in GIS and RS from Sun Yat-sen University, China.
I have a keen interest in human mobility, urban computing, and network science, with a particular fascination for leveraging computational methods such as ML and DL to address real-world challenges that impact our daily lives. Currently, I am working on predicting and modelling individual human mobility, intending to promote personalized travel options for a smooth transition towards a sustainable transportation system.
