Bio
I am a R&D engineer at RITS team, Inria Paris. My current research topics are deep reinforcement learning, decision and trajectory planning for autonomous vehicles. In 2022, I have received my PhD degree in network, information and communication from Université Paris-Saclay, CentraleSupélec, under the supervision of Dr. Salah E. Elayoubi and Dr. Vineeth S. Varma at Laboratoire des signaux et système (L2S), France. My PhD thesis is entilted Robust control of platooning systems over imperfect wireless channels. In 2018, I have received a MSc degree in electrical engineering with emphasis in control and automation from Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP), Brazil, under the supervision of Dr. Jose C. Geromel and Dr. Gabriela W. Gabriel. In 2016, I received my B.S. degree in electrical engineering from Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), Brazil, with Laureate Mention (rank 1/60+).
