My name is Mateus Begnini Melchiades and I am a Software Developer and Researcher in Machine Learning. My main field of study is centered around Option discovery in Reinforcement Learning, but I also previously worked on projects related to NLP and Neural Networks. I am currently finishing my M.Sc in Applied Computing at University of Vale do Rio dos Sinos (Unisinos) and ready to begin a PhD position at Vrije Universiteit Brussel. I also hold a bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Unisinos, with an outstanding student award from the Brazilian Computing Society (SBC).

The programming languages I usually work with are (in order of familiarity):

• Python (including popular libraries like Jax, Pandas, Numpy, PyTorch, ...)
• Go
• Lua
• Bash
• Rust
