Kathryn Leonard is an American mathematician and computer scientist. Leonard received a Henry L. Alder Award from the Mathematical Association of America in 2012.[1] She received the AWM Service Award from the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) in 2015.[2] She served as the AWM Meetings Coordinator from 2015 - 2018.[3] She was President of the AWM and is now AWM Past-President.[4] She is also director of the NSF-funded Center for Undergraduate Research in Mathematics. She is currently on the American Mathematical Society Nominating Committee.[5]
Leonard's research focuses on geometric modeling with applications to computer vision, computer graphics, and data science. She has received multiple major grants, including a National Science Foundation CAREER Award.[6]
Leonard and Misha Collins, together with several other collaborators, are authors of "The 2D shape structure dataset", an article on a crowd-sourced database on the structure of shapes.[7]
