João Reis

Researcher and Invited Teacher @ FEUP

My name is João Reis, and I’m currently an Invited Teacher at FEUP and a Researcher at the Institute for Systems and Robotics – Porto. My research focus on machine learning and smart manufacturing systems.

There are patterns that we cannot even perceive due to our lenience of considering a simple leaf fall, raining drops or random persons’ organization in room office as a routinely meaningless event. All we need is just to look again with the right method of questioning. Is based on this simple moto first introduced by Werner Heisenberg that expresses my eager interest for the machine learning and pattern recognition domain. It’s my natural curiosity about all that moves around that opens the door for the minimum assumption that possibly there are some sort of non-obvious correlations between, and fosters my need to grasp the true value of patterns and its consequent beauty.

Expertise

Computer Programming

Programmers are the modern-day Wizards.

Industrial Cyber-Physical Systems

Digitalization and Agent-based Systems for Manufacturing Systems.

Machine Learning

Transformative biological process of taking in information that changes what we know and builds on what we do. What about machines?

Popular Science

Interpretation of science intended for a general audience, more broad-ranging, and making scientific language more accessible.
