Pattern-based algorithms for Explainable AI

• I won the student scholarship of the eXplainable AI (XAI) workshop at the 25th ACM KDD 2019 conference to present my work in Anchorage, Alaska, USA. (2021)
• ACM-W Europe Hackathon challenge - winner team. I and the members of my team won the ACM-W Europe Hackathon challenge "Work life balance & smart working: brilliant ideas and new tools for the aerospace industrial sector" sponsored by Avio Aero and CTNA. The ACM-W Europe Hackathon was in conjunction with the 6th ACM Celebration of Women in Computing: womENcourage 2019 from September 16 to 18, Rome. The goal of the challenge was to develop a project focused on Work and Life balance integration, embodying concepts suitable for exploiting technologies and intelligent work models, encouraging a cultural change in the companies.
