About me
My name is Zhanhong Cheng (程展鸿). I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Civil Engineering at McGill University. My research focuses on developing data-driven and knowledge-driven solutions for intelligent, sustainable, and accessible transportation. Drawing on techniques such as machine learning, statistical modeling, optimization, and transportation network analysis, I develop applications and discover knowledge from massive multi-modal transportation data. Find more about me on CV, Google Scholar, Github, ResearchGate, or by email.
