Summary
Luis A. Leiva is an associate professor of computer science at the University of Luxembourg with 14 years of research and industry experience bridging Human-Computer Interaction and Machine Learning. He holds multidisciplinary degrees spanning industrial design, industrial engineering, electrical engineering, pattern recognition and a PhD in computer science, enabling him to blend design thinking with rigorous data-driven methods. Co-founder and former CTO of Sciling, he has real-world B2B ML product experience alongside academic leadership as a former postdoc at Aalto and researcher at UPV. His work in Computational Interaction focuses on using computational models to explain and support user behavior, and he contributes to the field as an editor, reviewer, and conference program member. An uncommon strength is his cross-domain fluency—from hands-on startup engineering to formal academic research—which informs practical, human-centered ML solutions.
