Gonçalo Jacinto is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Évora University and a member of the Center for Research in Mathematics and Applications. His PhD (2011) and Master's (2004) in Applied Mathematics degrees were obtained at Lisbon University, Instituto Superior Técnico, as well as a BSc in Applied Mathematics from Évora University (2000). His main areas of interest are stochastic processes and their applications, with a special interest in the modeling and performance evaluation of the Internet and telecommunications networks and in stochastic differential equations models to describe the individual growth in random environments, with applications in the weight of cattle. In the area of statistical modeling and data analysis, with special emphasis on data science and artificial intelligence, he has developed studies with different applications in varied areas.
