EXPERIENCE

Montana State University

Graduate Research Assistant / January 2021 - Present

  • Part of the Analysis Engine of the On-Field Precision Experiment (OFPE) Framework project.
  • Published 8 journal and conference papers related to prediction and optimization in Precision Agriculture as well as uncertainty quantification and explainable machine learning.
  • Developed a web application in Flask to demonstrate the functionality of the prediction and optimization tools.

Graduate Teaching Assistant / August 2019 - December 2019

  • CSCI 447 - Machine Learning (Fall 2020).
  • CSCI 432 - Advanced Algorithm Topics (Fall 2020).
  • CSCI 232 - Data Structures and Algorithms (Spring 2020).
  • CSCI 132 - Basic Data Structures and Algorithms (Fall 2019 and Summer 2020).

National Institute of Research and Training for Telecommunications (INICTEL-UNI)

Computer Vision Researcher / November 2014 - July 2019

  • Published 11 conference and journal papers, and 1 B.Sc. thesis related to computer vision and remote sensing.
  • Led small teams and worked in multidisciplinary environments.
  • Developed software to detect Mauritia Flexuosa palms in the Amazon using aerial images and drones. The project allowed the expansion of the monitored area by 200% and reduced the expedition costs by 500%.
  • Developed software to segment clouds and shadows for the Space Agency of Peru (CONIDA) in high-resolution multispectral satellite images. The solution reduced the processing times by 1000%.
