Senior🎓
Top SchoolYizi Chen is a geospatial computer vision researcher and postdoctoral fellow at ETH Zurich with eight years of experience applying advanced computer vision and machine learning to map analysis, geo-AI, and HCI. She completed a PhD at IGN’s LASTIG lab focused on ancient map recognition and has blended academic rigor with applied deep learning work across time-series and geospatial domains. Yizi’s background spans electrical engineering to computer science (Debrecen, TU Delft, Université Gustave Eiffel), and she has a track record of translating domain-specific problems—like musician practice enhancement and historical cartography—into practical ML solutions. Based in the Zürich metro area, she combines foundational research with hands-on algorithm development and an unusual cross-disciplinary interest in music, being a semi-professional pianist whose musical insights have informed ML-driven practice tools.
