Hou Ce is a GIS-focused data scientist and visiting PhD student with nine years of experience applying machine learning, AI, and 3-D visualization to spatial problems across academia and open-source. Currently based in Beijing and affiliated with UC Berkeley, he blends rigorous civil engineering research (PhD candidate at HKUST) with hands-on software development—authoring and refactoring a modular TypeScript/JavaScript library scaffold and CLI that streamlines project creation. His work spans interdisciplinary research posts at UCL, Tsinghua, and Peking University, and he serves on the board of an international GIS professional association, reflecting both technical depth and community leadership. Comfortable at the intersection of AR/VR and spatial analytics, he pairs geodetic foundations with modern full-stack tooling to turn complex spatial data into interactive, publishable visualizations. A polyglot learner who has moved between Paris and Beijing, he brings a cosmopolitan curiosity and an engineer’s attention to reproducible, modular code.
