About Me 
I received the degree in electronics engineering and the MSc degree in robotics, control systems and automation from the University of Minho, Guimarães, Portugal in 2010. In 2011 I started the PhD in Technology and Information System where had been developing the thesis in the area of Social Signals Processing in Human-Computer interaction. Currently I'm working at Centro de Computação Gráfica (CCG) as a Technical Developer in the Perception, Interaction and Usability (PIU) R&D group. As a researcher has been collaborating in projects related with Human-Robot and Human-Computer interaction, usability, Human Factors aplyed in the automotive, digital signal processing applied to sound and image, research in perception of image and audio, computer programming languages and mathematical models for machine learning and intelligent systems.
