Since 2014 I am affiliated with the Department of Electronics and Computer Science (USC), where I pursued my PhD in Computer Vision for the subsequent 5 years. During my PhD I have broaden my knowledge about extbf{designing and implementing algorithms for Computer Vision and signal processing}. I went through the scientific process of building my test cases in order to validate the algorithms. I also built backends to retrieve results and compare them with other models in the state of the art. Finally, I built frontends and GUI's to present these results, draw figures and publish my work.\ During the last year I have been working in the design, implementation and certification of aeronautical Computer Vision aimed military-grade systems, sensors and communication infrastructures, applied to onboard and cloud systems. Moreover, I kept broadening my knowledge in Data Science. I am fluent in English, Spanish, Galician and Portuguese

Scene wireframes sketching for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Published in Pattern Recognition, ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018

In this work I present a novel method for 3D abstraction of environment. I experimentally compared it against other state of the art method. It is aimed for real-time environment understanding by UAVs. Ranked Q1 in Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition by SJR. DOI 10.1016/j.patcog.2018.09.017.

From line matching to 3D abstraction

Published in University of Santiago de Compostela, 2019., 2015

My PhD thesis goes through straight segment detection on images, all the way through matching them between images, up to the automated creation of 3D representations from these detected primitives. My contributions have applicability in the detection of shapes in images, feature matching and Structure-From-Motion based on groups of images.
