I'm a PhD student in the Ohtsuki Laboratory at Keio University, working with Prof. Tomoaki Ohtsuki, where I also earned my M.Eng. I hold a B.Eng. in Information Security from Hefei University of Technology.

My keywords: autonomous driving, multimodal learning, vision-language models (VLMs), embodied intelligence.

SemoDepth — Radar-Modulated Selection (RMS)

Selection, Not Fusion: Radar-Modulated State Space Models for Radar-Camera Depth Estimation

Zhangcheng Hou, Tomoaki OhtsukiNeurIPS '26

Injecting radar features inside the Mamba selective state-space (modulating Δ and C) rather than only pre-blending modalities, for more robust radar–camera depth estimation.

RePos — Relative-to-Absolute Output Factorization

RePos: Relative-to-Absolute Output Factorization for Cross-Environment WiFi-Based 3D Human Pose Estimation

Zhangcheng Hou, Tomoaki OhtsukiarXiv '26

Factorizing WiFi 3D pose into a room-agnostic relative pose and a room-specific root position, so body structure transfers across unseen environments while a separate branch handles localization.

Loss-adapter — training stage

Loss-adapter: Addressing Network Packet Loss in Distributed Inference for Lossy IoT Environments

Zhangcheng Hou, Tomoaki OhtsukiIEEE IoT-J '25

A method that keeps split / distributed neural inference accurate when intermediate feature packets are dropped over unreliable IoT networks.

Distributed inference over an unreliable link (Gaussian-Dropout plug-in)

A Plug-and-Play Module for Enhancing Fault-Tolerant Distributed Inference Based on Gaussian Dropout

Zhangcheng Hou, Tomoaki OhtsukiIEEE ICC '25

A drop-in module that improves the fault tolerance of distributed inference by training models to withstand feature corruption with Gaussian dropout.
