I'm Álvaro and glad you are here! I'm a data scientist who loves Natural Language Processing. My journey on this topic started when I was finishing the Computer Science degree at UNED. Since that wasn't enough for me, I decided to continue learning the NLP field by studying a research master's degree of NLP at UNED. Now I am finishing the thesis on Automatic Fake News Detection on Social Media, where I study the generalisation ability of Transformers when trained over a dataset and tested against a dataset of different topic. Apart from that, I try to do my best playing Splatoon 3 😄.
