About me

Hello, I'm Bea and I’m looking for a academic researcher position! So far, I've worked on cooperative multi-agent systems (MSc), automating crowd simulation (PhD), and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence (postdoc), among other things.

I love teaching and programming and I solve most of my problems with questionable AIs in Python.

DARTER: Digital twins for Accessible Real Testing grounds for automotive Engineers and Researcher (2022 - 2023)

Academic researchers in the field of autonomous driving (AD) are key in evaluating the benefits and social and environmental harms that technological advances can pose. Nevertheless, compared to AD companies, academic researchers have limited access to real-world testing platforms to validate and experiment with their ideas. Due to this, academic researchers typically turn to virtual environments or Digital Twins (virtual representations of the real world) as a replacement to climb up technology-readiness levels. Nevertheless, there is still a gap between simulations and experimental evaluations on real world AD testing grounds.

Coming up next:

Our proposal "Insightful Automotive Operational Data - Using Foundation Models for Time-Series Data at Scale" was approved to receive funding from Vinnova !

Awards:

2024. Challenge Award at RE’24 for Ali Nouri, Beatriz Cabrero-Daniel, Fredrik Törner, Håkan Sivencrona, and Christian Berger: "Engineering Safety Requirements for Autonomous Driving with Large Language Models."

2023. Best Paper Award at TAS’23 for Krishna Ronanki, Beatriz Cabrero-Daniel, Jennifer Horkoff, and Christian Berger: "RE-centric Recommendations for the Development of Trustworthy(er) Autonomous Systems."

Volunteering

I volunteer, sometimes to raise funds, for different causes e.g. Red Cross, La Marató de TV3 (solidarity project that focuses on a different disease each year), Oracle4Girls, Girls In Tech, Mobile Social Congress, etc.

I am also a proud member of AMAM, the Association of Musicians and Artists of Mollet (my beloved hometown!). In this association, I take care of a lot of different activities: from organizing events and coordinating resources (which often translates as carrying speakers and rolling up cables), to content creation for the physical posters and the social networks.
