About Me

Here is Luan Sousa.

I am currently a Master’s student in Statistics at the Institute of Mathematics (IM) at UFRJ. I hold a bachelor’s degree with a solid foundation in Statistics, Machine Learning, and Programming. I am proficient in Python and R, data retrieval and processing with SQL, predictive modeling using scikit-learn, and data visualization with Tableau, Matplotlib, and Seaborn.

My previous work and research have spanned Machine Learning (supervised and unsupervised learning) and Generalized Linear Models. Currently, as a Master’s student, I focus on regularization techniques in machine learning models and Bayesian Artificial Intelligence, with special interest in Bayesian Networks. I am driven by the challenge of applying rigorous statistical methods to complex real-world problems, always aiming to generate value and meaningful insights.

I am open to discussions and collaborations. Feel free to reach out:
