Hi, my name is

Adrian Melendez.

ML Engineer

Welcome to my home page! By education I am a theoretical physicist, but I ended up riding the Artificial Intelligence wave and falling in love with Machine Learning.

About Me

First, during my education I did two Bachelor’s degrees, one in Physics and one in Electronic Engineering. After these, I did a Master’s Degree on Theoreitcal Physics and Astrophysics. specializing in the search of planet formation through data analysis.

However, I decided not to pursue a PhD and start a company job instead. Currently, I am working as an AI researcher at GMV, a defence and aerospace company. My role is to analyse the state of the art and develop algorithms for sensor data fusion, specially camera and radar. The main tasks are object detection and multi-object tracking.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • PyTorch
  • SciKit-Learn
  • Pandas/Polars
  • Jenkins/Gitlab CI
  • Stonesoup
  • Ultralytics

Experience

AI Engineer - GMV
Jul 2023 - present
  • Research and development on state of the art algorithms for data fusion:
    • Most of the algorithms considered are used in an autonomous driving context.
    • Examples of algorithms:
      • Classical Data Fusion: Kalman Filter, Particle Filter, etc.
      • AI Aided Kalman FIlters: KalmanNet, DANSE, APBM, etc.
      • AI Data Fusion: Camera+Radar, Camera+Lidar"
