I am a final-year PhD Candidate in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia in Italy. I work within the AImageLab research group, under the supervision of Prof. Rita Cucchiara.

Previously, I received my Master’s Degree cum laude with a thesis entitled “Deep Reinforcement Learning Methods for Filling Machines Control: A Blueprint for Industry 4.0”, developed during an internship period at Tetra Pak, Modena 🇮🇹.

My current research focuses on HVA Human Visual Attention, and in particular on Scanpath Prediction and Task-Oriented Visual Search, with a specific focus on the integration of vision and language modalities for the understanding of human gaze behavior.
