Bonhun Koo is a software engineer with four years focused on productionizing ML for large-scale, real-time computer vision systems, currently working on MTMC tracking at Google. He designs end-to-end architectures that handle 30+ camera streams, develops detection and re-identification models in Python, and ports high-performance components to C++/TensorRT for inference at scale. Previously he led MTMC and medical image anonymization efforts at Deeping Source and added INT8/mixed-precision quantization and dataset tooling contributions to prominent open-source projects like OpenVINO and Datumaro. His master’s research produced an award-winning news recommender published at PAKDD20, reflecting a blend of applied research and systems engineering. Based in Seoul, he pairs low-level performance optimization experience from Samsung and Intel with a practical knack for turning research prototypes into robust, deployable pipelines.
