Isaac Triguero
I am an Associate Professor of Data Science at the School of Computer Science of the University of Nottingham. In my research, I aim to make fundamental advances in data science, specifically in data mining, data reduction, semi-supervised learning, extreme classification and big data learning. I am now very fascinated by the challenges associated with processing big amounts of data to extract valuable knowledge in extreme frameworks.

Research interests
I am an active member of the computational intelligence and data mining communities. My work is primarily concerned with researching novel methodology for big data analytics and optimisation. Within my research group, the Computational Optimisation and Learning (COL) Lab, my distinct research areas are data science and machine learning. At the school level, my most distinct expertise is in the area of big data. Relevant research works include the development of state-of-the-art big data pre-processing techniques for classification, novel big data learning algorithms, extreme big data problems (e.g. imbalanced classification), and realworld big data solutions in Health, Transportation and Energy. The following figure summarises my research expertise in data science:
About me
Isaac was born and bred in a small town, called Atarfe, in the region of
the magnificent Granada, Spain, where the emblematic Arabic palace and
fortress 'Alhambra' sits. Isaac studied his MSc and PhD degrees in Computer
Science at the University of Granada, where he was drawn into all the
buzz words of the moment (Data science and Big data) before departing to
Ghent where he worked (and mostly ate waffles on a daily basis) as a
postdoctoral researcher in the Data Mining and Modelling for Biomedicine group (DAMBI - http://www.dambi.ugent.be/), headed by Prof. Saeys. A few years ago, Isaac joined the School of
Computer Science at the University of Nottingham, where he is a member of the Computation Optimisation and Learning Lab (COL); he was soon
severely punished and trapped into teaching a programming course with
Thorsten, and Operating Systems and Concurrency with Geert De Maere. He is now designing a Big Data module that will start in Spring 2021.
