Senior🎓
Top SchoolIgor Lashkov is a postdoctoral scholar and experienced research scientist based in Honolulu with 11 years of software and research experience at the intersection of machine learning, deep neural networks, computer vision, and intelligent transportation. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science and has combined academic rigor with product-facing engineering—building real-time driver safety systems (10k+ installs) that run on Android and embedded Jetson platforms using Java, Kotlin, C++, OpenCV and TensorFlow. His background includes industrial-scale mobile development at Yandex (translator apps with millions of installs) and cloud backend work that improved data compression by 60%, reflecting a strong track record of moving models from lab to production. A seasoned grant writer, reviewer for Transportation Research Part C, and former instructor, he bridges research, software engineering, and human-centered system design. Notably, he has delivered deployable cross-platform modules and end-to-end pipelines that detect driver drowsiness and distraction in real time, demonstrating practical impact beyond publications.
