About

I am a Postdoctoral Fondecyt Researcher at the Advanced Mining Technoology Center (AMTC), Universidad de Chile. Currently I am a visiting foreing researcher at the Kyushu Institute of Technology, Fukuoka, Japan.

I received a Doctoral degree in Electrical Engineering (Universdad de Chile, 2010), a M.Sc. in Applied Mathemathics (Ecole Normale Superieure (ENS) de Cachan, France, 2006), an Electrical Engineering degree (Universidad de Chile, 2003), and a Bachelor in Computer Engineering (Universidad de Chile, 2002).

I have been a research fellow at the NDRC, Kyutech, Japan (2009-2010), an associated researcher at the Fraunhofer IPK-Institute, Berlin, Germany (2004-2005), and a research collaborator of the Center for Web Research at Universidad de Chile (2004).

My current research interests include: computer vision, machine learning, object detection and recognition, scene interpretation, and face analysis. I have participated in international projects, developed algorithms for large scale industrial systems, and at age 33 (2011), I am an active researcher with over 30 publications in international conferences and journals.
