About Me

Abián Hernández

Abián Hernández Guedes (male) graduated at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC), Spain, in 2015 as computer scientist and since 2017 he holds a master’s degree in Telecommunication Technologies from ULPGC. Currently, he is a Ph.D student in telecommunication technologies and computer engineering focusing his studies on image processing. He participated various medical image processing related projects (HELICoiD and ITHaCA) and a project related to the development of sustainable medical technology (MACbioIDi). He has participated in different NA-MIC (National Alliance for Medical Image Computing) events presenting and colaborating several projects in order to develop multi-modal image processing algorithms, especially segmentation, registration and classification processes. In 2020, he obtaines a Predoctoral Research Grant from the Canary Islands Government. His main interests are medical image segmentation and deep learning algorithm.
