ICML 2021 paper

Extremely happy and excited to share that our paper “Graph Mixture Density Networks” has been accepted for publication at ICML 2021! Huge congrats to Federico Errica for his second ICML paper and to Alessio Micheli who shares with me Federico’s supervision towards a brilliant Ph.D!

Check out the paper (soon on Arxiv in camera-ready form) to discover how we introduced first model for learning multi-modal output distributions conditioned on arbitrary graphs, and its application to epidemiology.

New graduates on adaptive tree processing

Congratulations (with some delay) to my students who graduated with two theses on the LISTIT project.

Valerio De Caro extended the Hidden Markov Tree Network and developed an efficient implementation of the model.

Michele Colombo developed a Conditional Variational Autoencoder for learning tree to tree  transductions with application to machine translation.
