Summary
Érick Rodrigues is an adjunct professor and researcher with a PhD in visual computing and machine learning, blending over a decade of teaching and applied R&D across academia and industry in Brazil and abroad. He has a strong publication record in data mining, medical imaging, optimization and games, and earned national recognition as one of the top PhD theses in Brazilian computer science. Practically minded, he has built simulators and GPU-accelerated prototypes (including a pioneering vehicle simulator for Vale) and brings 15+ years of hands-on programming in Java, C/C++, CUDA, JavaScript and cross-platform game frameworks. His teaching spans computational intelligence, graphics, security and parallel programming, while his research focuses on image processing, metaheuristics and bioinformatics. Early entrepreneurial web and game development (from teenage hobby projects to high-traffic sites) gives him a rare combination of production-grade engineering, research rigor and product intuition.
