SEEKING WORK | Frankfurt, Germany | REMOTE-only

I have some time on hands I can spend on Machine/Deep Learning in computer vision, NLP and fraud detection (spot instances and series). I am both in bleeding-edge academia as well as in industry productionalizing state-of-art models (i.e. replicating proven papers that are 3-6 months old and putting them into production on problems that largely reduce to their assumptions). Recently turned a DenseNet and Wide ResNet multicategorical image detection into an SaaS serverless product, prototyped a Spark-based "classical" ML fraud detector ensemble matching performance of a hand-crafted one (Gradient-boosted Decision Trees, Random Forests, SVM etc.), identifying suspicious features using PCA/t-SNE/clustering and preparing another detector based on spot fraud detector (VAE) and time series fraud detector (VRNN/WBW), e.g. bot traffic. Automating customer service using sentiment analysis and mail classification/response generation. Self-driving cars, Deep Reinforcement Learning for robotics and program synthesis for research fun too.

Purely project based, i.e. you specify what you need and I work on a solution with agreed checkpoints (renumeration possible based on days or progress level).

While based in EU, there is no problem to spawn a company in Delaware to service US-based clients if needed.
