Guillermo Ortiz Jimenez

I received my BSc. in telecommunications engineering (Valedictorian) from Universidad Politecnica de Madrid (UPM), Spain, in June 2015, and my MSc. in electrical engineering (Best Graduate, cum laude) from Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), The Netherlands, in August 2018. During my studies, I held positions at the Microwaves and Radar Group of UPM during 2015-2016 and at Philips Healthcare Research in Hamburg (Germany) during summer 2017. I am now working towards my PhD. thesis at the Signal Processing Laboratory 4 under the supervision of Prof. Pascal Frossard. My current research focuses on understanding deep learning by studying the complex interactions between datasets, architectures and optimization. In my work, I am providing a novel framework to design better and more reliable neural networks that exploit prior knowledge about the world. I am the recipient of a National Award for Excellence in Academic Performance from the Ministry of Education of Spain, a la Caixa Postgraduate Fellowship, and the Best Graduate award both at UPM and TU Delft.
