Alex obtained a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from the Faculty of Sciences and Technology - Unesp Presidente Prudente in 2008. He holds a Ph.D. in Science and Technology of Materials from the interunit Postgraduate Program in Science and Technology of Materials, POSMAT, at Unesp. He has participated in and organized various events, such as national and international congresses and symposia, also conducting workshops, lectures, and tutorials. He was a Scientific Initiation scholarship holder by CNPq in 2007 and held FAPESP scholarships for master's, doctoral, and postdoctoral studies from 2009 to 2019. He served as a project assistant scientist at BIDS Berkeley Institute for Data Science, University of California, Berkeley, from 2019 to 2022. Currently, he works in the areas of scientific computing, data science, machine learning, image processing, pattern recognition, and computer vision. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Obtaining the age of natural minerals using the Method of Fission Tracks requires that tracks from the fission of Uranium-238 formed on polished surfaces of minerals such as apatite and zircon be counted in a optical microscope or in photomicrographs. When these tracks are entirely contained in the mineral (confined), they could have their length measured if attacked by another track of f…
This project continues the research project developed by the student in his masters degree, approaching the estimation of the value of materials properties using wavelet transforms. In a first moment these transforms will be Haar and Daubechies wavelets. Wavelets, applied in a digital image of the sample, turn it into a signal in frequency and time domains, returning important information…
This work will promote the study of images obtained by optical, scanning and atomic force microscopies, of different materials prepared by the research group of professor Aldo Job. The study of images will be made using mathematical and computational techniques, involving the tools labeled Fourier and wavelet transforms, and algorithms of pattern extraction and recognition, that will be g…
The fission track method, employed to estimate the age of natural minerals, requires the counting of tracks from the fission of Uranium-238 formed on the mineral volume. When the mineral is polished, tracks cut by the surface are chemically etched. The process of track counting is usually performed using an optical microscope or photomicrographs obtained from it. The track length can be m…
