Larry Yin is a Staff AI/ML Scientist based in San Jose with a decade of experience applying machine learning and engineering to real-world products and operational systems. He progressed through technical and leadership roles at Experian after earlier work as a data scientist at Verizon and as a research engineer developing coastal hydrodynamic models and novel neural-network methods at Stevens Institute of Technology. His research produced practical tools—Floodnet, Designated Inverse Dropout for missing data, and grid and interpolation utilities—that powered operational flood forecasting and climate-related studies for NY/NJ ports and transit agencies. Larry combines deep domain expertise in ocean engineering (PhD) with hands-on ML product delivery, bridging academic rigor and production constraints. Notably, his background as a ship officer informs a pragmatic, systems-oriented approach to robustness and edge-case handling in models. He focuses on turning research innovations into reliable, scalable products that meet operational needs.
