Hello, I'm Mariana!
I am a Data Scientist and currently a doctoral student in the Postgraduate Program in Computer Science at the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (PPGCC/UFMG, 2021). I received B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Computer Science from the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) in 2017 and 2020, respectively. I was part of the Apoena Project - Past, Present and Future in Academic Social Networks (Web page: Apoena Project) as an undergraduate research assistant and the Bàde Project - Métricas Sobre Dados de/para Redes Sociais em Diferentes Contextos (Web page: Bàde Project) as an MSc student. My research interests include Data Science, Machine Learning, and Social Network Analysis.
