My master research was in machine learning. Since getting training sets has been an issue of significant impact during the last years, I proposed a probabilistic model for yes/no type crowdsourcing in multi-class classification.

I have developed several projects of machine learning and data mining in university as well as a freelance consultant. I have also worked as Data Scientist for the biggest ecommerce company in Latin America.

My main areas of knowledge are algorithms of machine learning and data mining. I have also explored solving simulation problems (processes, process mining, and Monte Carlo simulations) as well as software development.

I would like to share my title speech with you. Available only in Spanish.

Developing machine learning for the biggest e-commerce in Latin America. The main projects rely on recommendations and products rankings to increase the ticket size and conversion rate.
