Summary
Myron Brown is a Principal Engineer and hands-on technical leader with over two decades of experience building algorithms and production software at the intersection of computer vision, machine learning, and remote sensing. Based at Johns Hopkins APL, he has led teams that turned research into operational capabilities—delivering image/lidar registration, camera calibration, and Geiger-mode lidar pipelines for NGA, USSOCOM, and DARPA customers. His work spans C++ and C# engineering, program management, and public-data initiatives, including organizing four public data challenges and maintaining open datasets and tooling for geospatial computer vision. Myron’s research contributions include weak-, self-, and multi-view supervision methods for object detection, alignment, and geopose, with initial geopose results presented at CVPR 2020. He combines deep domain expertise in airborne and satellite mapping with a track record of reducing operational timelines by an order of magnitude and enabling government teams to deploy novel sensors. Outside program delivery, he champions open-source public-data resources to accelerate community research and reproducibility.
