Background

About Bernal M.

I am a Ph.D. student in Computing Science at the University of Alberta, working on problems related to signal and image processing and data analysis, with emphasis on acoustic imaging and signals. I have close to ten years of experience combined with data analysis for oil exploration, research assistant, and as a part-time university lecturer. From 2014 and until 2016, I collaborated at the Engineering Faculty of UNAM, Mexico as a part-time lecturer in Geophysics and engineering, lecturing Exploration Seismology, Classical Mechanics, Applied Complex Variables and Selected Topics in Oil Exploration. From February 2010 and until September 2014, I worked in quality control and seismic data processing both onshore and offshore: 2D, 3D -MAZ, NAZ, time-lapse vintages, undershoots, slant cable acquisition for improved de-ghosting, Coil Shooting surveys. I have been part of quality control teams of new acquisition systems onboard seismic vessels on two occasions. In 2006, I worked for one year as an intern for the Mexican Geological Service at the geological documentation center. During the period comprised between 2007 and 2008, I worked as a research assistant in topics of Monte Carlo simulation for liquid state and disordered porous media simulation. In 2009, he began a second internship and Thesis at the Mexican Petroleum Institute performing Gas Hydrate quantification via Monte Carlo simulation based on seismic Bottom-Simulating-Reflection identification. Skills Data analysis and QC. Acoustic imaging and signal processing. Software: LINUX, UNIX (somewhat rusty. but over 20 years that started. so it is coming back faster than other skills). Programming: C, HTML,(I started learning C and HTML, beginning as most old timers from Pascal around 1997). FORTRAN I started in 2007. Coming back to it. Python (rusty.again taking it back). Scripting: MatLab, Shell, LaTeX (up to date: day to day skill.).
