Castellón-Aprendizaje

The Castellón-Aprendizaje node is comprised of researchers from the AFAIAE group at the UJI, as well as collaborators from other research groups and universities who work alongside them. Their common thread is the research and application of statistical learning methods in various branches of the life sciences—primarily biomechanics, medicine, and neuroscience—with a special focus on processing complex data, such as geometric shapes or signals. The node is known for developing cutting-edge mathematical and algorithmic theory (3D shapes, Big Data, bio-inspired algorithms) to solve real-world health problems.
