TEMPORARY: LINK TO SLACK
Join slack group on Unsupervised learning

I am professor in the Statistical and Biological Physics sector in the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA), Trieste. I work mainly on the development of analysis techniques for complex data landscapes, and to the development of algorithms for enhancing the capability of computer simulations to provide predictive answers for complex heterogeneous systems. A more detailed description of my activity can be found in the Research page.
