Gabriele Ciravegna
I am a Post Doc in the MAASAI (Models and Algorithms for Artificial Intelligence) research team of Inria. I received the Ph.D. degree with honours from the University of Florence in 2022 under the supervision of Professor Marco Gori. In 2018, I received a master’s degree in Computer Engineering with honours at the Polytechnic of Turin. Besides machine learning, I also like football, volleyball, and playing the piano.

Research
I have always been interested in the machine learning field. Nowadays, I am focused on overcoming the intrinsic limits of machine learning and neural networks. By combining neural networks with domain knowledge, I am studying how to tackle some of them, in particular in the contexts of Explainable AI, Adversarial Attacks and Active Learning.
I presented my works in several international venues such as IJCAI, AAAI, and IJCNN. I also serve as a reviewer in conferences and journals that are about Neural Networks, such as AAAI and IEEE TNNLS.
Take a look at the seminar I was invited to give at the University of Cambridge
