Professor
Oliveira is a Full
Professor in Computer Science at the University of Iowa,
member of the
Informatics and the Applied Mathematical and Computational
Sciences programs.
She was previously an Assistant Professor at Texas A&M,
and has taught at
and visited many Universities, long visits at the Australian
National
University and University of São Paulo. Professor Oliveira's
research is
interdisciplinary, on the computational and theoretical
aspects of algorithms
in Scientific Computing and Machine Learning. She is
particularly interested in genetics, biology, chemistry, and
medicine. Projects have included clustering algorithms for
protein-protein
networks, neural networks for antibiotic resistance, and
interpretable neural
networks for test assessments. She has graduated 13 PhD
students and is advising around 5 other PhD students;
she
has authored/co-authored over 85 refereed papers. Professor
Oliveira has published two books (one with Cambridge
University Press and one with World Scientific).
