I am a PhD in Computer Science with a background in Electronics Engineering.

I am currently looking for a job! ... voilà my CV, both the academic (with a list of publications) and 1-page versions.

## Softmax Regression

Softmax regression is a supervised machine learning algorithm used in classification tasks where a target variable $y$ may take $K$ values, and we are interested in labeling an observation composed of $N$ features/predictors. While workarounds such as OvR and OvO allow to use binary classifiers (e.g. logistic regression) in multinomial... [Read More]

## Linear and Quadratic Discriminant Analysis

Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) are supervised machine learning algorithms used for multinomial classification tasks. Both LDA and QDA estimate $P(y \;\vert\;\mathbf{x})$ relying on Bayes theorem, i.e., first calculating $P(\mathbf{x} \;\vert\; y)$, and eventually $P(y)$ too. For each class $k \in \{1, \ldots, K\}$, LDA assumes... [Read More]

## Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Estimation

A training set $X$ composed of $m$ samples, i.e., $X = (x^{(1)}, \ldots, x^{(m)})$, can be modeled as the outcome of a random variable $\mathcal{X}$. If we knew how this variable behaves, we would then be able to characterize the dataset. The behavior of a random variable is determined by... [Read More]

## Logistic Regression

Logistic regression is a supervised machine learning algorithm used in classification tasks where a target variable $y$ may take $K$ possible values, and we are interested in labeling an observation $\mathbf{x}$ composed of $N$ features/predictors. In particular, logistic regression is used in binary classification tasks, i.e., cases where $K=2$. However,... [Read More]
