Isaac D. Gerg, Ph.D.

I work at the intersection of machine learning, signal processing, and remote sensing — building AI systems that extract meaningful information from complex sensor data. My current focus is applying cutting-edge ML and AI to long-term weather prediction, modeling climate risk across agriculture and finance. I also study mammalian intelligence to inform novel AI methodologies.

With over 20 years of professional experience spanning software engineering, systems engineering, and principal investigator roles, I bridge deep theoretical foundations with practical, deployable solutions. I completed my Ph.D. at Penn State while working full time, which shaped my ability to rapidly translate theoretical breakthroughs into real-world impact.

I have led programs for DARPA, ONR, and NavSEA, and provided significant technical execution on programs for DTRA, AFRL, and several intelligence agencies.
