CURRICULUM VITAE MIGUEL ANGEL GUEVARA LÓPEZ 07/12/2012

SHORT SUMMARY/BIOGRAPhY Miguel A. Guevara López obtained his BSc degree in Mathematics at the Higher Education Institute Jose Marti Camaguey, Cuba in 1987 and completed a PhD degree in Technical Sciences at the Computing, Mathematics and Physics Institute of Cuban Academy of Sciences, Cuba in 1997. He started his research activities in 1988 being his research interests mainly focused on digital image processing, pattern recognition and machine learning, data mining and artificial intelligence techniques with applications in image and data analysis. From April/1988 to December/2008, he worked as computer sciences professor at University of Ciego de Avila, Cuba (UNICA), where he attained the scientific category of Auxiliary Researcher in 1996 and the category of Titular (Full) Professor in 2005. There, he built a solid position as independent researcher, contributing decisively to the scientific development of UNICA through: (1) in 1992 he created the Computing Group at Center for Plants Biotechnology that he headed until 1998; (2) in 2000 he founded the Faculty of Computer Sciences, being its Dean until 2001; (3) in 2001 he introduced a MSc programme in Applied Computer Sciences, being its coordinator until 2007; and (4) in 2006 he founded the Centre for Advanced Technologies in Computer Sciences. He has performed and coordinated teaching activities in courses related to the Computer Sciences area in several University/Institutions. In 2008, he obtained a contract as Auxiliary Researcher at INEGI - Institute of Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Management, Faculty of Engineering at University of Porto, Portugal, where he founded and leads the Biomedical Image and Data Analysis (BIOIDA); a multidisciplinary research group devoted to fundamental and applied research in biomedical image and data analysis. Summarizing, Miguel A. Guevara López published 54 articles: 22 in international and national peer reviewed journals; 3 books; 8 in book chapters and 21 in peer reviewed congress proceedings. He participated as researcher in 19 national and international scientific projects (10 as coordinator). He is a member of scientific national and international associations such as APRP - Associação Portuguesa de Reconhecimento de Padrões and IAPR - International Association of Pattern Recognition. He supervised 8 MSc Thesis, one PhD Thesis and one postdoctoral student.
