Short Biography
I am currently Principal Member of Technical Staff at the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence (BAAI), a non-profit research insitute in Beijing, China, where I work on new AI scenarios involving intelligent agents and multi-modality models. My main interests include machine learning systems, multi-modality reasoning, intelligent agents, multilingual knowledge pipelines, and digital entertainment.
From 2012 to early 2023, I was Principal Research Engineer Lead at Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA). Initially a member of the Mobile and Sensing Systems and System Algorithms research groups, I later joined the Knowledge Computing group – part of the Data, Knowledge, and Intelligence (DKI) research area.
Previously I was a Research Scientist at Nokia Institute of Technology (INdT) - a Nokia-founded R&D lab in Brazil, where I led its Contextual Platform group. Previously I’ve also worked as system/software architect, consultant, product owner, and development team lead on projects for companies such as Nokia, C.E.S.A.R., Motorola, 3, TIM, Radix.com, Petrobras, among others.
I received my doctorate in Computer Science from PUC-Rio, Brazil in 2010 and my BSc from UFPE, also in Brazil.
I've also been a member of the organizing committee and TPC of conferences, including AAAI, ACL, IJCAI, MobileSoft, SIGGRAPH Asia's MGIA, etc.
» students Research
My research interests lie broadly in machine learning systems, knowledge mining, mobile systems, pervasive computing, and digital entertainment, with a recent focus on topics including tabular data semantics, design intelligence, modular KBQA, real-world information extraction, and location-based systems (e.g., navigation, mapping, etc.).
