Lojze Žust is a research scientist and PhD student in computer vision with a decade of software and research experience spanning autonomous marine perception, earth observation, and deep learning. He combines strong Python and PyTorch/TensorFlow skills with practical ML engineering—contributing to the widely used eo-learn framework on cloud masking and image resizing—and has applied those skills at NAVER LABS Europe, Sinergise, and Stanford. His doctoral work focuses on vision-based obstacle detection for autonomous boats, reflecting a blend of applied robotics and remote sensing expertise. Known for an analytical mindset and meticulous attention to detail, he moves smoothly between prototyping research methods and production-focused code refactors. Notably, his contributions to multi-temporal cloud detection demonstrate an uncommon ability to bridge algorithmic research with real-world Earth observation pipelines.
