Maria Bardon is a data scientist and AI researcher with a PhD in Computer Science and eight years of experience applying machine learning, deep learning, NLP and computer vision to industry problems from insurance fraud detection to mine-to-mill optimization. Based in Espoo, Finland, she moves fluidly between research-grade methods (answer set programming, autonomous reasoning) and production ML tooling (Azure ML, Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow), often combining satellite and remote-sensing imagery with optimization algorithms for operational impact. Her background in mathematics, robotics and academic research underpins a pragmatic approach to complex problems—turning novel R&D (e.g., CycleGANs for satellite/IR image translation and deep-learning–driven mine planning) into client-ready solutions. Colleagues value her for bridging rigorous theory and deployable analytics across startups and established organisations.
