I am a PhD student at University of Stuttgart, advised by Prof. Dr. Michael Pradel. While studying for my Master Degree at Polytechnic of Turin I developed a particular interest in classification and Machine Learning. I studied Computer engineering from hardware level, designing in VHDL a microprocessor, to high level software programming, like Deep Learning, applied on Visual Recognition using Convolutional Neural Networks with Python and Matlab. My current research interest is on Code Evolution, Mining Repositories, Software Analysis, and Machine Learning.
