Dr. Miguel Vargas Martin is a Professor of Computer Science at  Ontario Tech University . He has a Ph.D. (Computer Science) from Carleton University, a Master's degree (Electrical Engineering) from CINVESTAV del IPN, and a Bachelor of Science (Computer Science) from UAA. Dr. Martin is a licenced Professional Engineer in the Province of Ontario and CEO of PHractal.ca. His research focuses mainly on computer authentication paradigms and the use of phenomena of the human mind via brain-computer interfaces as well as proven techniques from the psychology field. Most significantly, the use of and reliance on machine learning over the past decade has shaped him into a data scientist who uses the scientific method in combination with machine learning algorithms and feature engineering techniques supported all by Python, to make sense of large data sets from the real-world, and tune-up data models in response to data changes over time. Also, he is currently exploring artificial intelligence for companion robots leveraging his expertise in machine/deep learning and his experience with human mind phenomena. Dormant areas that lost traction for a number of reasons include network steganography in the form of Wi-Fi hidden-channels, adaptive online learning systems, and combating internet child exploitation.
