About Me
Yuxin Ding
Machine Learning Engineer · Medical AI · Computer Vision
I build machine learning systems for turning real-world needs into practical, impactful products. At Carina Medical, I work across AutoBrachy’s pipeline, from multi-site CT/MR data processing and 3D segmentation to geometry-aware reconstruction, dose optimization, and evaluation supporting FDA 510(k) submissions.
Beyond work, I enjoy exploring new domains and data types. My projects include a local RAG chatbot for product manuals, an AI agent for adjusting radiotherapy plans through natural-language instructions, and earlier work involving traffic video analysis, speech and text processing, and epidemic modeling.
AWSExperience & Education
Sep 2023 – Present Data Scientist Carina Medical LLC · Baltimore, MD / Remote
- Maintain and extend AutoBrachy's ML data and training pipeline across 5–6 institutions and 400+ clinical cases, with data QA, ROI-definition reconciliation and detection of corrupted, duplicated or mismatched DICOM data.
- Reproduced out-of-distribution segmentation failures and built simulation-based augmentation for them, raising tandem-and-ring processing success from 129/145 (89%) to 145/145 (100%).
- Developed geometry-aware post-processing for vertebral separation, applicator reconstruction and merged-needle separation (trajectory prediction, Hungarian matching, spline reconstruction).
- Implemented dose calculation and constrained dwell-time optimization, plus reproducible multi-site evaluation supporting FDA 510(k) documentation.
Sep 2022 – Dec 2023 M.S.E. in Applied Mathematics and Statistics Johns Hopkins University · Baltimore, MD
- Teaching assistant for EN 553.636 Introduction to Data Science (Spring 2023).
Jun – Aug 2021 Software Engineering Intern VMware · Beijing, China
- Built Python tooling to monitor and visualize algorithm outputs and long-running jobs, and benchmarked clustering metrics and bin-packing algorithms for algorithm selection.
Sep 2018 – Jun 2022 B.S. in Statistics, Minor in Data Science Fudan University · Shanghai, China
