FELIPE DUARTE
Biomedical informaticist and Back-End Developer
Hi, I'm Felipe 👋
I'm a Biomedical Informatics
student at the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR), with a passion for machine learning and
artificial intelligence.
As an intern at C3SL, I work on machine learning development, focusing on shapelets extraction techniques that I have
created.
My responsibilities include improving the accuracy of previously published
research and developing new algorithms to enhance the performance of CNN, LSTM, and Transfomer models.

Experiences
My experiences and work (portfolio) I've done
Wine Quality
During a scientific initiation project at the Laboratory
of Artificial Intelligence and Formal Methods (LIAMF), I did this project as preparation
for larger projects involving deep learning.
I obtained a dataset from Kaggle that contains a .csv file with various chemical
compositions determining the quality of wine.
Using Python, I trained a neural network on this dataset
to determine the quality of any wine based on its chemical factors.
All of this can be found at this link to my GitHub repository.
Single-Cell Analysis of Zebrafish Cardiac Cells
This project was a collaboration between the Laboratory of
Immunology and Experimental Fibrosis (LiFE) and the High Performance and Efficient
Systems (HiPES) labs.
I was involved for a short time, only 5 months, as an
assistant to another student who had been in the course longer. However, due to a teacher
strike that lasted over two months, I had to leave the project.
During this time, I learned many interesting things about
bioinformatics, such as RNA sequencing indexing and analysis, and performing data analysis
using R.
I analyzed data at the single-cell level and used software
tools like Salmon and Alevin to aid in the analyses.
Additionally, I utilized machine learning techniques like
PCA and clustering to facilitate data visualization.
Transfer Learning
This project was part of a scientific initiation at
the Laboratory of Artificial Intelligence and Formal Methods (LIAMF), focused on applying transfer learning techniques
using a diverse dataset.
The goal was to leverage pre-trained models to
enhance the performance of machine learning tasks on new, related datasets.
By utilizing transfer learning, we aimed to reduce
the amount of data and computational power required for training while achieving high
accuracy.
This approach also allowed us to explore the
potential of transfer learning in various applications, including image classification and
natural language processing.
Memory compression using ZRAM software
This project was conducted in the Computer Architecture course,
focusing on using zRAM for memory compression in modern operating systems.
The project involved implementing and analyzing the performance
of memory compression across various hardware configurations, including machines with 4GB
and 16GB of RAM.
In addition to matrix multiplication tests, we used the NASA Parallel Benchmarks (BT) to evaluate the impact of
memory compression under demanding computational loads.
Memory compression proved effective in optimizing resource
management, especially in systems with limited RAM.
The full report (in Portuguese) can be found at this link.
Space Impact 303
This project was developed as the final assignment for the
Programming 2 course, focusing on creating a game inspired by the classic Space Impact 303.
The project involved techniques such as event management,
graphical interface creation, sprite manipulation, and collision detection.
The final result was a functional game that stood out for its
interactive mechanics and intuitive design,
and the source code can be accessed through this link.
Liamf's Website
I discussed with my advisor about redoing the laboratory website, and he accepted the idea
since the current site was outdated as shown in the image.
This was my first front-end project; it was quite challenging, but I really enjoyed the experience.
I invited my friend Marquesini, a front-end developer, to help me with the
project.
I received approval from the coordinator of the Biomedical Informatics course and the
professor in charge of the laboratory website to access the lab's account and launch the new
site.
