Yes, that's his name and company at the top of page 1.

I've read that paper when it was first published on the web ;) It doesn't
define sensor gamut, or gamut of sensor outputs.
To quote,
"This paper reports on the observed characteristics of the capture color
analysis gamuts resulting from a number of capture devices/media, and scene
analysis color matrices."
The result depends on the matrix. Strongly depends, as the paper itself
demonstrates. That matrix defines the relation between the camera observer
and colorimetric observer.
