Current Research

My research is mainly focused on the development of data mining methods for large-scale problems and their application to challenging real-world problems, particularly (but not restricted to) in bioinformatics and biological data mining.

Past Research

My PhD thesis dealt with the Pittburgh model of Learning Classifier Systems (LCS). Specifically, the thesis had the following objectives: * Improving the generalization capacity of the model * Reducing the run-time of the system * Proposing rule-based representations for real-valued attributes

From 2005 to 2007 I worked as a postdoc applying LCSs to Bioinformatics, specifically to Protein Structure Prediction, in an EPSRC-funded project called "Robust Prediction with Explanatory Power for Protein Structure and Related Prediction Problems" under the supervision of Dr. Natalio Krasnogor of School of Computer Science, here in Nottingham
