Leonie’s work powers some of the key machine learning features at Pieces, such as text recognition and search. She discovered her interest in working with data when she was analyzing local politicians' tweeting behavior during elections. She then went on to study machine learning and causal inference in-depth, pursuing research on generative models, deep learning, and causal discovery. At Pieces, she is especially interested in making local models perform better, enabling users to find their content at the right time, and making Pieces work seamlessly with existing tech stacks.
