Yixuan Zhao

I am a PhD student in Computer Science at the University of Exeter, where I also completed my MSc degree. My research lies in the area of urban computing, with a particular focus on spatio-temporal data modeling and urban mobility analytics. My work aims to understand and model complex urban dynamics by integrating heterogeneous data sources, such as shared mobility systems, transportation networks, points of interest, and environmental factors. I am especially interested in developing graph-based and generative learning methods to address challenges arising from spatial heterogeneity, temporal sparsity, and system evolution in real-world cities.
