I am a Research Scientist at Spotify, in Copenhagen, Denmark. In Spotify, I focus on research about Personalization, trying to improve the listening experience of millions of customers.
I also work on representation learning, computer vision, unsupervised learning, and human behavioural understanding through multi-modal data. My work includes outfit generation, modelling human mobility and perception, photorealistic object manipulation and animation, video synthesis and image-to-image translation. My work has been published in multiple top conference papers and journals.
Previously, I have been Applied Scientist at Zalando, Germany, and Research Scientist at the Bruno Kessler Foundation (FBK), Italy. I am a PhD graduate from the University of Trento, Italy, where I worked with Bruno Lepri, at the Mobs Lab, and Nicu Sebe at the Multimedia and Human Understanding Group MHUG.
I collaborated with numerous international institutions, including MIT, MIT Media Lab, Nokia Bell Labs, Vodafone Group and Data-pop Alliance. Before joining FBK, I was a research intern at Vodafone, London, UK, and worked with Angelo Cardoso and Nuria Oliver. I also visited the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and worked with Marta C. Gonzalez and César Hidalgo.
