About
Hello, I'm Camilo Valdes, Ph.D, a computer scientist, researcher and software developer from Miami, Florida.
My primary research interests lie in developing high-performance, real-time distributed applications for the analysis of very large datasets. Recently, I have been involved in projects that study how microbes affect human disease, as well as a project that segments plant roots from high-resolution 3D CT images.
The underlying theme these projects have is their massive datasets, and I am interested in developing algorithms and methods for improving their analysis, as well as creating new techniques for visualizing their results. Previously, I worked on studying how classes of coding and non-coding mRNAs influence human cancers.
Castflyer is where I write about my research and interests, which include machine learning, cloud computing, statistics, data science, visualizations, software development, bioinformatics, and other assorted nerdery.
Software Projects
Most of the software projects I am involved in are for the support of my research, but I also like to build apps that do something of interest to me — see work page for details.
