Description
The Computational Intelligence Research Group (CA3), formed in 1996, joins together researchers with interests in the areas of Computational Intelligence, Data Mining & Machine Learning, Visualization & Image Processing and Ergonomics. The main focus, besides theoretical research, is on the application of the research topics to projects in industry and services, with special emphasis in the Space domain (European Space Agency).
After Portugal joined ESA, the group has since gone to develop over 15 projects for the various establishments (ESAC, ESOC, ESRIN and ESTEC), as well as being involved in several projects for the European Union and multiple projects for national entities, which have lead to the submission of 2 patents.
