My research focuses on generative Artificial Intelligence, with particular emphasis on the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs), deep neural networks, and advanced optimization techniques to enhance large-scale model performance. His work also includes the application of metaheuristics to optimize computational processes, both in real-time contexts and in industrial or academic settings.
