The CA3 group is composed of a research and development team and a group of qualified scientific advisors directly involved in R&D projects where CA3 is a partner.

We also have a variable number of visiting scientists and collaborators working with us. The former member section has previous group members.

Ali Abdollahi Gharbali - Research and Development Team
Short Bio

Ali Abdollahi Gharbali is PhD candidate of electrical and computer engineering program at Nova university of Lisbon. He is Also a researcher at CA3-Computational Intelligence Research Group of UNINOVA.

He received his MSc degree in signal processing in 2008 from university of Tabriz, Iran. His master thesis focus was on speech signal enhancement using combinational adaptive filtering.

In PhD, he is using artificial intelligence techniques for biomedical signal processing. Specifically, his PhD thesis is on the application of deep learning techniques for efficient and reliable automatic sleep stage classification.
