Research

Computational biology

I am currently researching the many fascinating applications of machine learning algorithms in healthcare and life sciences, with a focus on computational biology.

Specifically, my research interests in this field are:

• Drug-target interaction analysis and affinity prediction
• Directed and constrained molecular property optimization
• Protein function prediction and generative peptide optimization

Signal processing

I am currently pursuing a PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, where I am focusing on advancing the field of acoustic signal processing using machine learning methods.

Computer vision

I am also interested in the many applications of advanced computer vision tools and methods. I have worked on several projects dealing with difficult image-based tasks.

Here are some of them:

• Development of a thermal imaging camera trap for detecting small animals
• Machine learning-based surface crack detection on construction surfaces
• Automated 3D CT renal calculus and organ segmentation
• Sanitary freshener quality control automatization using computer vision
• Hemorrhagic lesion detection and segmentation on head CT scans
