My online instrument tuner using microphone based on the HTML5 Web Audio API. It is available here.
My C++ implementation of the Viola and Jones Object Detection Framework used for face detection over images. The code is available on GitHub.
I developed an HTML5 multilanguage subtitle post-editing application for the transLectures project.
My augmented reality chess game for the Android platform.
It is available for download on Google Play.
The LaVie lecture recommendation system for the VideoLectures.NET site.
I developed the CANTUS HTML5 software for real-time assesment of musical intonation.
CASFID's Enterticket platform for organizing and managing cultural events.
I studied Computer Science and a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence, Pattern Recognition and Digital Imaging in the Universitat Politècnica de València. I have been working for different research projects in the Machine Learning and Language Processing group since 2012, all of them about applying speech technologies (automatic speech recognition, machine translation and speech synthesis) in the area of education. I am also experienced in full-stack web design and web development technologies (PHP, SQL, JavaScript and frameworks like jQuery, React or Angular; AWS, Docker, etc). I am also leading speech synthesis developments using deep learning technologies for AppTek since 2019.
I am leading speech synthesis (text-to-speech) developments and research in AppTek.
I have worked for different research projects in the area of language processing:
Multilingual subtitling of classrooms and plenary sessions. Research project supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science under ref. no. RTI2018-094879-B-I00 (MCIU/AEI/FEDER, EU)
X5gon is an EU H2020 project which aims to create a solution that will help users/students find what they need not just in OER repositories, but across all open educational resources on the web.
More (Multilingual Online Resources for Education) is a MINECO founded project which aims to dramatically foster Open Education by providing multilingual access to OER and by enabling multilingual online communication in MOOC platforms.
The European Multiple MOOC Aggregator is a 30-month pilot action supported by the European Union. It aims to showcase excellence in innovative teaching methodologies and learning approaches through the large-scale piloting of MOOCs on different subjects.
transLectures was an EU-funded project to develop innovative, cost-effective tools for the automatic transcription and translation of online educational videos.
The Harvest project La Vie developed a proof-of-concept recommendation system to provide users of VideoLectures.NET with advice on suitable videos for their needs.
My interest on designing web pages and applications began at the age of 14, where I created some of my first personal websites using Adobe Dreamweaver. Since 2015 I also work as a freelance web developer. Here is some of my work:
I studied a master's degree on artificial intelligence where I learnt the basics about many different topics related to artificial intelligence, machine learning and pattern recognition (probability theory, neural networks, deep learning, support vector machines, Hidden Markov Models...)
I studied Computer Science Engineering at Universitat Politècnica de València, where I chose the specialization on Artificial Intelligence for the 5th year.
