Hi, I’m Aysima Merve Akkurt, a Computer Vision and Geomatics engineer based in Padova, Italy. I design production-ready AI systems for real-world applications, with a focus on object detection, segmentation, OCR, and model optimization. My toolkit includes PyTorch, ONNX, and FastAPI, and I frequently work with GIS data for mapping and spatial analysis. I thrive at the intersection of research and practical deployment, turning ideas into scalable solutions that perform in the field. In my recent internship at Codebeex, I accelerated vehicle image processing, improved segmentation accuracy, and reduced latency through data-centric design and efficient deployment. I enjoy bridging research with product-grade engineering and am open to EU relocation for exciting opportunities.
