Profile

I am an Electronics Engineer and Master in Informatics of the Universidad Técnica Federico Santa Maria, Chile. I received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Universidad de Chile. I did a Post Doc in Yahoo Research. I am Associate Professor at the Department of Computer Science, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.

I am associate researcher at the Millennium Institute for Research on Data Foundations, and principal investigator of the National Center of Artificial Intelligence CENIA. My work focuses on developing artificial intelligence methods to measure and anticipate events and processes in which humans participate. Among these events, I highlight the spread of information, the territorial disposition of humans in cities, the formation of communities, and the virtuous and destructive interactions between people. In addition, I am interested in disinformation diffusion processes, virtuous and destructive.
