Dr Guilherme Weigert Cassales

Lecturer - Information Technology

School of Mathematical and Computational Sciences

My research is focused on advancing ML and AI methods, particularly in the context of data streams and time-sensitive applications. Aiming for practical innovation and applications in anomaly detection, time series forecasting, concept drift, and clustering.

I am interested in improving scalability and efficiency of computer systems through these methods, with a focus on edge computing to enable resource-efficient, real-time decision-making in dynamic environments.

I contribute to open-source projects that democratize access to AI technologies. A key aspect of my work is fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, leveraging diverse expertise to develop sustainable and impactful solutions to real-world problems.
