Intellisec 2009 - 1st International Workshop on Intelligent Security Systems

The Workshop is meant to bring together researchers in the field of intelligent systems, in a collegial and stimulating environment. IntelliSec 2009 will cover all the major areas of security systems and related designs and applications. IntelliSec Workshop will have a part of Web Presentation, for researchers that cannot arrive in Bucharest in this period.

It also aims to encourage students and young researchers to present their innovative ideas and achievements. In addition, we want to support them to become more familiar with the scientific environment. (http://intellisec.ac.pub.ro)

Speaker:
Alexandru Catalin COSOI, Senior Researcher / AntiSpam Laboratory, BitDefender

In calitate de Senior Researcher al Laboratorului AntiSpam, Catalin Cosoi conduce activitatile de cercetare si dezvoltare din cadrul laboratorului si cauta permanent noi modalitati de imbunatatire a tehnologiei pe care BitDefender o utilizeaza si promoveaza. In cei peste 5 ani de activitate in cadrul companiei, Catalin a fost implicat in dezvoltarea celei de-a doua generatii a modulului antispam folosit de BitDefender, prin crearea unor tehnologii inovatoare, precum: NeuNet, Control Parental sau Advanced Image Filter si de tehnologia proactiva ce se regaseste acum in toolbar-ul antiphishing. Autor a 7 aplicatii propuse spre breverate care acopera toata gama de content filtering - antispam, antiphishing si parental control - Catalin a crescut considerabil proactivitatea acestor tipuri de filtre prin aducerea unor elemente stiintifice academice precum retele neuronale, prelucrarea imaginilor, lingvistica si metode statistice.

In prezent, Catalin urmeaza cursurile de doctorat ale Facultatii de Automatica a Universitatii Politehnica din Bucuresti si este un membru activ al comunitatii stiintifice Antispam, promovand tehnologii si solutii inovatoare la numeroase conferinte si intalniri internationale. In plus, se ocupa de atragerea de fonduri externe pentru diverse proiecte de cercetare la nivel european, avand ca parteneri institute de cercetare si universitati atat din tara cat si din strainatate.
