Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlexander Skorikov is a postdoctoral researcher and software engineer with eight years of experience developing algorithms and robust software for imaging applications across natural sciences, medicine and industry. Based at CWI in Amsterdam, he specializes in tomography, stereo vision and spectral/multidimensional data analysis, translating research ideas into maintainable code and reproducible pipelines. His contributions to the widely used hyperspy project show a focus on data integrity and tooling reliability, including fixes for microscopy I/O and live-time calculations. Trained in materials science (MSU) and with a PhD from the University of Antwerp, he blends domain knowledge of materials with computational imaging expertise to solve practical inverse problems. Colleagues value him for bridging rigorous research with pragmatic engineering and keeping complex imaging stacks running smoothly.

Contributions summary:Alexander primarily focused on maintenance and bug fixes within the hyperspy library. Their contributions included updates to the `mrc.py` file, which likely handles file input/output for microscopy data. They also fixed a typo in the CHANGES.rst file and addressed a bug related to live time calculations in the `eds.py` file when summing data along the signal dimension. This suggests a focus on ensuring data integrity and compatibility.
