| Dr. Martin Kermit
Dr. Martin Kermit will join CAMO Process division in Oslo, Norway, as
Research Scientist on June, 1st 2004. At CAMO he will become part of
R&D and Product Development Team and will also provide Customer Support
for our users in Europe, South America and Australia.
Dr. Martin Kermit completed a PhD in Computer Sciences, Mathematical
Modeling and Neural Computing in 2003. With a strong theoretical background
from physics and mathematics, Martin finished his Masters thesis in mathematical
models of the biophysical properties in the biological neural system
in 1997. To strengthen his computational skills, he worked for two years
in the School of Computer Sciences, Østfold College after the
Master graduation. During this period, he acquired practical computer
skills as well as research experience in robotics, digital image and
signal analysis as well as artificial intelligence and neural networks.
In 1999, he attended a Ph.D. program at the computer science department
at the University of Oslo. Three and a half year later, he finished his
Ph.D. thesis on neural processing models for sensory signal analysis.
The thesis is the first of its kind in Norway and describes pioneering
work in the application of different neural networks and other multivariate
statistical methods for analysis of various real world signals obtained
from sensing instruments. New and improved algorithms are also proposed
in the thesis which is essentially a collection of a total of five international
journal articles with peer review plus various short papers presented
at international conferences. After his dissertation, he has been working
as a Post Doc at the Agricultural University of Norway and the research
focus has been on data analysis acquired from biological processes.
Martin is Danish, 32 years old, is married and has an 18 months old
son.
Dr. Dongsheng Bu
Dr. Dongsheng Bu has joined CAMO Smart division in Woodbridge, USA.
At CAMO he becomes part of R&D and Product Development Team. And
will also provide Customer Support for our user base in USA and Canada.
Dr. Dongsheng Bu is a Chemometrician, Spectroscopy expert and Statistician.
He has more than 10 years experience in spectroscopic applications, chemometrics
and statistical analysis. He was a Senior Scientist at Argose, a Medical
device company for the development of noninvasive glucose monitoring
device. Prior to joining Argose he was an Engineer in Shanghai Institute
of Ceramics Chinese Academy of Science. Dr. Bu has 16 published papers
and presentations, and 2 patents in the areas of chemometrics algorithm
development. He has developed an interactive, self-modeling mixture analysis
algorithm; infrared biomedical hyperspectral image analysis and extensive
method development for chemical/biochemical measurement. He obtained
his Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from University of Rhode Island in
2000, where he developed FT-IR, UV/Vis spectroscopic techniques for chemometric
model testing and polymer synthesis control and Sensor development. At
URI, he worked on projects for AT&T Bell Laboratories where he characterized
contaminants of glass rod samples by the use of diffuse reflectance NIR
and performed IR, UV/Vis analyses of biochemical samples from Rhode Island
Crime Laboratory. At the Surface Science and Technology Work Station
at URI, Dongsheng developed doped Sol-Gel glasses in tube as aqueous
copper sensors and tested methods of using organometallic material for
carbon monoxide detection. He and received his BS in Chemical Physics
from East China University of Chemical Technology.
We at CAMO believe that these additions
will add tremendous depth in the field of Chemometry and neural networks.
