Eduardo Iraola

Recognised Researcher, Barcelona Supercomputing Center

I am a researcher with an interdisciplinary engineering background and a passion for artificial intelligence and coding. My primary focus is on using machine learning to analyze time series data for digital twin tools and insights that help us understand the state of a system and predict any potential issues.

Projects

Machine Learning end-to-end library. Used Python and Fortran to interface a commercial chemical engineering simulator and generate data from it to later use it for machine learning. Coded Python classes to handle hyperparameter tuning in TensorFlow, Pytorch and Scikit-Learn and benchmark different anomaly detection solutions, including hypothesis testing, random trees, feedforward neural networks, autoencoders and recurrent neural networks , 2021-2022
Magnetohydrodynamic solver. Contributed a solver to the open-source software OpenFOAM with C++ code to account for new physical phenomena for the PhD course in CFD with OpenSource software of Hakan Nilsson from Chalmers University of Technology , fall 2020
VB.NET extension of a chemical engineering simulator. Migrated from legacy VB6 code and programmed routines to add functionality to dynamic simulation operations , spring 2019
International cooperation microgrid project. Selected, travelled and set up an AC/DC converter to serve as the core of a prototype microgrid to connect isolated rural areas to the main grid in Bangladesh , summer 2018
