Bruno Otávio was born on September 7^th, 1980, in Belo Horizonte/MG (Brazil) where he lives since then. He concluded his high school at the Colégio Nossa Senhora do Monte Calvário in 1998. In 2003 he received the (first-class honors) bachelor degree in Control and Automation Engineering from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). As an undergraduate student, from middle 1999 to 2002, he joined the MACSIN research group (under the supervision of Prof. Luis A. Aguirre) where he was involved with biomedical nonlinear signal processing. In 2003 he dealt with the modeling and control of an Usiminas’s reheating furnace in his Undergraduate Degree Project (being supervised by Prof. Fábio G. Jota at the GCPI research group). He joined the post-graduation program (PPGEE/UFMG) in 2004 as a master student in Electrical Engineering (Signals and Systems) at MACSIN under the supervision of Prof. Leonardo A. B. Tôrres and Prof. Luis A. Aguirre. In June, 2005, his application to the doctorate program was accepted and he became a PhD student. He has been studying recursive and batch algorithms of probabilistic inference (based on the Sigma-Point Kalman Filter and Smoother) on the parameter and state estimation of nonlinear systems (adding emphasis on aircraft applications). Since the second semester of 2004, he is a (substitute) assistant professor at the Department of Electronic Engineering of UFMG.
