Hi there!
I'm Ricardo Ávila, I'm from Brasília, Brazil. I have an MSc degree (2013) in Telecommunications and Computer Engineering from the Federal University of Ceará (UFC).
Currently, I'm pursuing a doctorate in Information Science and Technology at Université du Québec à Chicoutimi (UQAC). There I work under the supervision of Prof. Raphaël Khoury.
I'm an associate researcher in a research project in Information Security, in partnership with the University of Laval and La Capitale Insurance and Financial Services.
🚩 At the present moment, I'm learning about imbalanced classes, anomaly detection, and logging and log management🔭 I'm currently working with data leak detection using security logs and machine learning technologies in the field of information security📄 My most recent paper: Use of Security Logs for Data Leak Detection: A Systematic Literature Review📫 Ask me about security information, data science, or machine learning
I also have experiences with Python, ASP, Visual Basic, C#(.NET) for Web applications and desktop applications.
I invest most of my time learning data science. I'm interested in improving monitoring and developing innovative solutions for a better world.
