Biography
Simone is a PhD student at the Department of Control and Computer Engineering. He obtained the Master’s degree jointly at Politecnico di Torino and Université Paris-Saclay (Paris Sud) on Physics of Complex Systems. He is currently working on Graph and Convolutional neural network applications to different domains. His research interest relates to theory-based machine learning strategies, i.e. the integration of data-agnostic prior knowledge to deep learning models to enhance their predictions.
