Ciao! I am Umberto, a last year Machine Learning PhD student in EPFL under the supervision of Prof. Matthieu Wyart. I am on the job market! πŸ”΄ Looking for ways to tackle relevant problems using GenAI and Machine Learning πŸ”¬πŸ’».

Between July and October I will be an Applied Scientist Intern in Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Pasadena, California! ✈️ The focus will be on Generative AI βœ’οΈπŸŽ¨.

The overarching goal of my PhD research in Machine Learning is to quantify the generalization capabilities of deep networks 🧠 πŸ’» and better interpret them, shading light in their black box πŸ“¦. We use a combination of analytical approaches ✍️ and extensive numerical experiments ⌨️.Β 

In the last period of my PhD, I focused on generating proteins using discrete diffusion model, to inquire about their structure 🧬.
