Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBenjamin Planche is a Senior Expert Research Scientist with 14 years of experience building computer vision and machine learning systems for industrial and medical applications, currently based in the New York City area. He specializes in tackling data-scarce problems—training robust vision models from limited images, CAD data, and constrained datasets—and translating research into product-ready AI for imaging, diagnosis, and robotics. His career spans Siemens and United Imaging Intelligence, where he progressed from doctoral researcher to senior expert, leading prototypes, feasibility studies, and cross-disciplinary teams. Benjamin combines deep academic training (PhD in Computer Science) with hands-on engineering, including TensorFlow 2 model implementations showcased in practical repositories and educational notebooks. He has a track record of contributing to large-scale industrial and government projects and turning patentable research into deployed solutions. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic innovator who pairs rigorous research methods with a bias for fast prototyping and real-world impact.
