Curriculum Vitae

Research on AI coding agents, green AI, and multi-objective optimization. Co-developed GA4GC framework (135× hypervolume improvement). Led empirical study analyzing 7,156 AI-authored pull requests.

Research visit where I developed an AI Agent for Text-to-SQL tasks using only small open-source models, enabling cost-effective natural language database querying without proprietary APIs.

Guided students through database system development. Designed lab exercises for SQL, relational algebra, ER modeling. Reviewed and evaluated all student projects.

Research visit where I created new Text-to-SQL evaluation metric (published in Scientific Reports / Nature).

Designed and deployed a production RAG system (reducing call center volume by 30%). Developed Genetic Improvement pipelines for LLM code correction. Proposed novel Text-to-SQL evaluation metrics. Mentored 5 thesis students.

Restructured departmental websites. Primary contact for 200+ students for academic guidance.

Thesis: "Application of Large Language Models: Addressing Real-World Challenges". Industrial Ph.D. co-funded by PLUS S.r.l. (Area Science Park). Supervisors: Prof. Luca Manzoni, Prof. Andrea De Lorenzo. International visits: UCL London, NOVA IMS Lisbon.

Thesis: "An Automatic Tool for the Recognition of Punches in Late-Medieval Panel Paintings" (published in IEEE Access). Erasmus exchange at Montanuniversität Leoben, Austria.
