About
I am a Ph.D. Student in the Italian National Doctoral Program in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Pisa and University of Bari “Aldo Moro”. In 2020, I completed a Master’s Degree in Communication Design at the Polytechnic University of Milan, developing my thesis at the DensityDesign research lab. After that, I obtained a one-year Master Degree in Big Data Analytics and Social Mining at the University of Pisa. I am a member of the XAI research Group and IVU lab.
Research Interests
My research Interests focus on Human-Centered AI, Explainable AI and Visual Analytics. I am currently studying and developing Explanation User Interfaces.
