About
Paulo Fazendeiro received the Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering (2010) the equivalence of M.S. degree in Computer Science (2001) and the B.S. degree in Mathematics and Informatics (1995 with honors) all from the University of Beira Interior Portugal. Currently he is an Assistant Professor at the Informatics Department of the University of Beira Interior. His research interests encompass Computational Intelligence and Granular Computing including the application of fuzzy set theory and fuzzy systems knowledge discovery and data mining evolutionary algorithms and their parallelization multi-objective optimization and clustering techniques with applications to image processing. Dr. Fazendeiro is member of the Pattern and Image Analysis group of the Portuguese Telecommunications Institute and is also a member of the Informatics Laboratory of the University of Algarve.Carmelina Leite has a PhD degree in Bioinformatics Federal University of Minas Gerais Brasil. She developed an algorithm for the ligand-based virtual screening based on linear algebra - The Milk-Way algorithm. This algorithm can be used not only to discover new drugs but also to reposition commercialized drugs. This structure-based screening resulted in a suggestion of treatment for COVID-19 the tetrachlorodecaoxide. Her dissertation comprised four years of work giving rise to two deposit patents. Currently Carmelina is an entrepreneur in an innovation project of nutraceuticals and drug development using data mining techniques.
