Biography

I am a PhD Student at the Côte d’Azur University in France, under the supervision of Prof. Frédéric Precioso and Thomas Menguy (CTO-Wildmoka). I work in Machine Learning field, specifically in the detection and classification of the most important actions in videos, using Deep Learning and multimodal features.
I obtained a MSc in Ubiquitous Networking in 2017 from the University Côte d’Azur in France with a LabEx scholarship.
In 2014 I graduated as an Engineer in Computer Systems and Informatics from the Industrial University of Santander in Colombia with a Laureate Degree Project.
