Summary
Gromit Chan is a Research Scientist II based in the San Francisco Bay Area with a PhD in Computer Science and a decade of experience at the intersection of visualization, data management, and applied machine learning. Currently at Adobe, he focuses on training and applying generative AI models for database and HCI research, building on earlier Adobe internships that produced peer-reviewed publications and patents in KDD, WWW and IEEE VIS. His academic work with ViDA at NYU Tandon and a visiting stint in Paris reflect deep expertise in scalable graph and time-series summarization for visual analytics. Comfortable moving research into production, he has repeatedly translated novel algorithms into patented, deployable systems for large-scale customer segmentation and network summarization. Colleagues describe him as methodical and steady—“one step, one note”—which underscores a disciplined, research-driven approach to solving messy real-world data problems.
