About me

Dr. Diego Oliva

I am an associate professor  at the Department of Computer Sciences of the Universidad de Guadalajara in the Centro Universitario de Ciencias Exactas e Ingenierias that is located in Jalisco, Mexico. 

I was an invited professor at the Tomsk Polytechnic University (TPU) in Russia for the academic year 2016 – 2017. Since 2020, I am part of the TPU as invited researcher.

I work in the research group of Evolutionary Computation and Machine Learning. My primary activity is research in Computer Science, especially in the fields of image processing,  machine learning, soft computing and particularly in metaheuristic algorithms. 

I teach different courses in the Computer Science Department and advise students from Bachellor, Masters and Ph. D. programs.
