Andre Pacheco is an Assistant Professor and AI/ML researcher with over a decade of experience bridging academic research and industry productization, including a Ph.D. in Computer Science from UFES and a visiting research stint at Dalhousie. He has developed and deployed resource-constrained machine learning models for health applications—most notably contributing to a model shipped on Galaxy Watch devices—and has earned recognition such as a Samsung Best Paper Silver Award. His research focuses on machine learning for healthcare, out-of-distribution detection, and decision-making, complemented by hands-on skills in Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, OpenCV and embedded sensor analytics. He leads projects that translate clinical data into practical tools (e.g., a smartphone-based skin cancer detection app) and mentors junior researchers and engineers. Outside work he maintains a Portuguese ML teaching blog and volunteers on tech-for-good initiatives, reflecting a habit of learning, creating, and sharing across research, education, and real-world impact.
