My name is Giorgio L. Morales Luna. I am a researcher specializing in Symbolic Regression, Explainable and Interpretable Machine Learning, and Uncertainty Quantification. I earned a Ph.D. in Computer Science at Montana State University under the supervision of Dr. John Sheppard, as a member of the Numerical Intelligent Systems Laboratory (NISL). I hold an M.S. in Computer Science from Montana State University and a B.S. in Mechatronic Engineering from the National University of Engineering in Peru.
My research aims to advance transparent machine learning techniques that support scientific discovery, decision-making under uncertainty, and data-driven exploration across disciplines such as physics, biodiversity, and engineering. For a complete Academic CV, please visit here.

My current research focuses on Symbolic Regression, leveraging the advantages of deep learning techniques (e.g., transformer models) and evolutionary algorithms to distill experimental data into analytical equations that serve as causal explanations for the observable world. The aim is to offer an alternative to the use of black-box models and an avenue for the automated discovery of explanatory and causal models from observed data.
I am also working on uncertainty quantification and adaptive sampling techniques for epistemic uncertainty minimization.
