RESERACH INTERESTS
- soft computing (fuzzy systems, neural
networks, genetic algorithms)
- and its applications to automatic control,
optimization and computer vision in industry and biomedical engineering
- director and/or participant of several research projects in cooperation with portuguese industries (pulp and paper, cement, ceramics) and in several international programs (Comett, ESF- European Science Foundation, EU-TMR, etc.). I have also supervised several MsC and PhD thesis.
- one of the founders of CISUC- Center for Informatics and Systems
of the University of Coimbra, where he created and directs the Adaptive Computation Group ( with research activities concerning
neuro-fuzzy systems, adaptive, on-line learning and intelligent control;
genetic multi-objective optimization; hierarchical and large scale
optimization; computer vision for industrial quality inspection).
- neuroinformatics: applications of
soft-computing and computational intelligence to model and analyse brain
signals, namely EEG and functional imaging (iFMR),
and to apply them to seizure prediction in epilepsy and to pattern
analysis of brain signals in aging people in order to find early
indications of possible evolution to aging diseases.
- data-mining for industrial process
monitoring and for neuro-informatics studies.
