Miguel Romero | Applied Scientist

Bay Area


A little about me...

Hello,

This is Miguel, a bay area transplant from Barcelona.

I am interested in knowledge representation and understanding. I find particulary interesting knowledge graphs and natural language processing -- "words are not just text units but first class citizens in our mental knowledge graph".

🚴🏽 🏃 and 🏊 are the protocols I use to re-boot.

I am an Applied Scientist II at the Amazon ML Solutions Lab where I have the pleasure of working with a team of incredible scientists and inspiring projects from AWS's strategic customers.
