de Sousa
I hold a Ph.D. in Signal and Image Processing (2004) from the University of Nice - Sophia Antipolis (France). My research was developped in the CREATIVE Group of I3S laboratory, CNRS/UNSA, where I worked on "Multiple Description Image and Video Coding for Noisy Channels".
I also hold a Master Degree in Computational Mathematics (1999) from the Department of Mathematics of the University of Minho (Portugal). My master thesis was entitled "Ôndulas no Intervalo".
Finally, I graduated in Mathematics and Computer Sciences (1994) in the University of Minho, Braga, Portugal.
