Short CV

I received the M.Sc. degree (Hons.) in Computer Science (2013) and the Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Mathematics (2017) at the Department of Computer Science, University of Bari, Italy, where I am currently an Assistant Professor. My current research interests include machine and deep learning, computer vision, and their application to several domains, including e-health, drone vision, and digital humanities. I have participated in research projects, including the responsibility of a European PON AIM project on "Computational Methods for Cultural Heritage". I am currently a member of the Editorial Board of "International Journal of Intelligent Systems", and I am involved in organizing scientific events, the most recent of which was the "3rd International Workshop on Fine Art Pattern Extraction and Recognition" (FAPER 2023) as part of ICIAP. I regularly serve as a reviewer for many international journals published by high-level publishers, including Elsevier, IEEE, and Springer, and as a member of the Program Committee of many international conferences. I have won a few awards, including best paper and an NVIDIA GPU grant. I am regularly involved in the teaching activities of my department and have supervised dozens of graduate students in Computer Science. I am also involved in technological transfer, project review, and scientific dissemination activities. I am currently a member of the IEEE, the IEEE Computer Society, the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society, the INdAM-GNCS society, the IAPR Technical Committee 19 (Computer Vision for Cultural Heritage Applications), the AIxIA association, the CINI-AIIS laboratory, the CITEL telemedicine research center, the CEDITH digital heritage research center, GRIN, and the REPRISE register of experts.
