A paper on Bayesian tensor factorization for efficient processing of structured data has just been accepted for IJCNN 2019. Check it out:
Congratulations to two of my students who succesfully defended their B.Sc. and M.Sc. theses with two excellent ML projects.
Lorenzo Marsicano developed microESN, a library for the development of recurrent neural networks in embedded systems with minimal memory and computational resources.
Andrea Valenti designed a new deep learning model for MIDI music generation, beautifully named MusAE, for Music Adversarial autoEncoder (and of course to honour Greek mythology).
Congratulations!!
The first lecture of the 2019 edition of the Intelligent Systems for Pattern Recognition (ISPR) course will be on
THURSDAY 22/02/2019 h. 14-16 – ROOM C1 – POLO FIBONACCI
More information on the course website.
Congratulations to my student Francesco Crecchi for his first journal paper showing how Dropout can be used to enforce robustness to missing inputs at test time in several recurrent neural networks. Check out its applications to sensor data processing.
Looking forward to delivering an invited lectured on deep learning for graphs at next week’s CALDAM 2019 pre-conference school in Kharagpur.
A joint paper with the Hands and Haptics team at Centro Piaggio has just been accepted at the top-robotic confrence ICRA 2019 (and jointly to the IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters journal). A deep neural network learning, from humans, how to guide a robot arm in the manipulation of never-seen-before objects. Early access to the paper here: check out the upcoming videos of our system at work!
Congratulations to my Ph.D. student Federico Errica who has just been selected for a summer internship at Facebook. Have fun!
Good news in the Esann 2019 program!
Congratulations to Francesco Crecchi and Marco Podda for their accepted papers on adversarial attacks and graph generation

Great success also for the special session on Societal Issues in Machine Learning: When Learning from Data is Not Enough I am co-organizing. We received an high number of great quality papers but only 4 made it to the oral plenary.
The upcoming INNS Big Data and Deep Learning conference will be featuring two events from my group: a tutorial on Deep Learning for Graphs, jointly with Alessio Micheli, and an accepted oral paper survey deep learning models for tree transductions, jointly with my research associate Antonio Bruno.
Check out the INNS BDDL program here!
Check out my new joint work with Visar Arapi, Cosimo Della Santina, Matteo Bianchi and Antonio Bicchi. A deep learning based approach to recognize action primitives in video of object manipulation by humans. A first step towards automating robot manipulation skill acquisition from humans.
