pereira-adriano/README.md

👋 Hi there, I'm Adriano Pereira

🎓 Master’s in Computer Vision at PESC – COPPE/UFRJ,
exploring AI for computer vision and embedded systems.

💻 I’m passionate about combining machine learning, lightweight architectures,
and computer vision to design efficient and explainable AI solutions.


🔬 Research & Technical Interests

  • 👁️ Computer Vision — Image processing, feature extraction, and object detection
  • 🧠 Weightless Neural Networks (WiSARD, BTHOWeN, DWN) — Efficient and memory-based learning models
  • 🚢 Maritime Object Detection & Scene Understanding — Vessel and environmental perception from aerial/drone imagery
  • ⚙️ Edge AI and TinyML — Lightweight neural models for embedded and low-power devices
  • 🕶️ XR and Simulation-Based Training — Virtual and mixed reality systems for education and industry

🧩 Featured Projects
