I am transferring my background in machine learning to to become a high-tech entrepreneur. I founded, and serve as the CTO of CERAmarketing; we help retailers optimize their merchandising and sales staff performance by collecting statistics about customer behavior inside their store. We do this by analyzing video from the stores` security cameras using our computer vision algorithms. In 2011 I organized an independent count of attendees at Moscow`s protests for fair election. I led a team that recorded the marches, and a counted them using our purpose-built computer vision algorithms. Our work made a splash in the local media, resulting in four TV interviews, and articles in the local media, gathering tens of thousands of views. I hold an MSc in Computer Science from University of Toronto, and a BS/MS in Mathematics from Carnegie Mellon University. I have 8 years of experience in computer vision and related fields, primarily as an algorithms developer. Specialties: Computer Vision, Machine Learning. Code in Python, Matlab, C++, Java, and CUDA. Strong background in mathematics. Profile ©
