About me

Hello, my name is Mario, and I work professionally with software development for more than 10 years. Currently, I'm focused on Web Development using mainly JavaScript and Python, and Game Development using Unity, but I also have professional experience with mobile apps and other more corporative software.

I'm also a Computer Scientist and a M.S Computer Engineering, with published papers on scientific events. My current studies involves Machine Learning, Big Data, Computer Vision and Microservices.

And, oh... I really like Pokémon! <3

Cold-Start Problem é um problema recorrente em Sistemas de Recomendação nas seguintes situações: quando um novo item é adicionado ao sistema e não possui nenhuma avaliação prévia; ou quando um usuário sem histórico de avaliação entra no sistema. Avaliando as diferentes situações em que o Cold-Start Problem se apresenta, é possível considerar o uso do histórico de navegação como alternativa para geração de recomendações. Levando em conta o formato sequencial dos dados, estudos sugerem o uso de Redes Neurais Recorrentes (RNN) por permitir maior entendimento da sequência de dados e seu contexto. Durante a revisão sistemática realizada neste trabalho, as arquiteturas de LSTM, GRU e híbridas aparecem com frequência entre as pesquisas relacionadas ao tema. Entretanto, os autores dos trabalhos revisados não comparam as arquiteturas entre si, o que é crucial para o entendimento das vantagens e desvantagens do uso de dados do histórico de navegação com RNN. Este estudo propõe a comparação das arquiteturas de LSTM, GRU e híbridas de RNN através da criação de protótipos utilizando a mesma base de entrada, avaliando suas performances através dos valores de Acurácia, Revocação, Precisão e F1-Score..

This article shows the results of a performance analysis from LSTM, GRU and Hybrid Neural Network architectures in Recommendation Systems. To this end, prototypes of the networks were built to be trained using data from the user's browsing history of a streaming website in China. The results were evaluated using the metrics of Accuracy, Precision, Recall and F1-Score, thus identifying the advantages and disadvantages of each architecture in different approaches.

This work presents a research’s result that had the objective of analyzing the data of car robbery in São Paulo in a certain set of days, in order to identify a pattern among the robberies events presents in the data sample. Data were obtained from the São Paulo State Government’s Transparency Portal, using K-Means and Apriori algorithms for classification and grouping.
