I was born in Canada. Since moving to the US I’ve lived in several cities across Florida. I’m currently in Melbourne, FL working for Harris Corporation.

I began my higher education early at Florida Atlantic University (FAU), also in Boca Raton. In 2002 I received my B.S. degree in computer engineering. I subsequently moved on to the University of Florida (UF) in Gainesville and completed my M.S. degree there in 2004. In 2008 I received my Ph.D. in computer engineering from FAU.

My dissertation, “Image retrieval using visual attention” was performed under the supervision of Dr. Oge Marques. My research created a new content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system augmented by knowledge of the human visual system (specifically, visual attention) and collaborative filtering.

One of my favorite hobbies is music. I’ve released ten albums since 1998. My most recent release, “Shift” is widely available online (iTunes and other retailers) and by request at most music retailers.

Mayron.net

Mayron.net was created on October 19^th, 2001 by me, Liam Mayron, as a place to share my interests and ambitions with the world.

My first site was created when I was 12, at the dawn of the World Wide Web. The original Mayron.net was a modest site with only my biography. Later revisions added photos, interactive features, and news posts.

I can be contacted via e-mail.

Guestmap

I’ve always been interested in geography (my parents have pictures of my falling asleep with an atlas over my head when I was 6 years to prove it). I’m also interested in who is visiting my site. The result of merging these two interests is the Guestmap. The Guestmap only shows the last 100 entries, so check the map periodically and post a new entry if you’ve been pushed off the map.
