Summary
David Duque is an R&D engineer with a PhD in Mathematical Morphology and Machine Vision from MINES ParisTech and nine years of experience bridging academic research and industrial software development. He specializes in 3D point cloud processing, LiDAR fusion, and applying mathematical morphology with machine learning for urban scene understanding and autonomous vehicle projects. Currently at The Cross Product, he translates advanced research into production-ready algorithms for 3D perception, building on a track record of teaching deep learning and developing Java-based systems earlier in his career. Comfortable across Python, C++, Java and MATLAB, he combines hands-on implementation skills with deep theoretical grounding, and has a rare depth in morphological approaches to point-cloud analysis that informs robust, interpretable solutions.
