Contractor position (through Adecco Romania) which involves working on-site at the Google Bucharest office outsourcing a Google Research project.My main responsibilities include: - Developing machine learning solutions for automatic data classification and pattern recognition on par with state-of-the-art performance. This has resulted in 2 papers at AAAI.

Bucharest, Romania

Perform research on topics such as estimating, modeling or synthesizing the 3d human body shapes under various constraints (i.e. geometrical, scene). My top responsibilities included the following: - Design and implement methods that use techniques such as deep neural networks, GANs, variational auto-encoders, graphical models, numerical optimization, 3D.

Bucharest, Romania

Project based collaboration which involved building a 3D avatar model world (football supporters) with human – computer interaction based on Microsoft Kinect and smartphone(Android & iOS). I worked in a team of 2 and we were responsible for:- developing a C# library for gesture recognition which involves Microsoft Kinect SDK- the detection of the hand.

Bucharest, Romania

The position implied teaching object orientated programming from a practical perspective (lab sessions) for first year students at Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science. I illustrated and taught object oriented programming paradigm concepts by using the C++ language.

Singapore

The work involved building a C++ library for hand gestures recognition which were performed by using a Microsoft Kinect device. Support Vector Machine model was used as a machine learner model for the project work and the following libraries were also used: openGL, openCV, openNI.
